On June 29th, the Court delivered on the long standing goal of rightwing politicians to overturn affirmative action. In deciding against Harvard College and the University of North Carolina, the Court ruled that race could no longer be an explicit factor in college and university admissions.  In their Left & the Law segment, Jan Haaken and Mike Snedeker discuss the significance and scope of this decision, the history of Supreme Court decisions around race and education, and the potential for resistance to this and other recent SCOTUS rulings.
