Affirmative Action And Reparations In America
In this podcast, Kushal speaks with Coleman Hughes about " Affirmative Action and Reparations In America". On June 29, the United States Supreme Court voted 6-3 and struck down affirmative action in college admissions, thus overturning a four-decade precedent that enabled schools and universities to consider applicants' race in their admissions processes. This podcast talks about its relevance and also about reparations for African Americans in America and their possible roadblocks.
