Affirmative Action is a way to try to right generational wrongs that have caused damage to entire portions of our population, damages that continue to reverberate today.
Given that the US continues to underfund public primary education in poor and underprivileged communities where generally minorities live in higher proportion, yes, this is breaking history and the future for many in this country.
The Supreme Court’s Conservatives Are Breaking History and Our Future-

This is what has been planned for decades.
It all started when #RonaldReagan was governor:

This is why the #FederalistSociety planned to highjack the #SupremeCourt more than 20 years ago.
@HistoPol @TonyStark Reagan was the beginning of the end!
Yes, and the beginning of the end was the failed #denazification of #US politics and society of the infestations of the fascist #AmericaFirst Party in the 1930s and 1940s:

If you haven't listened to RachelMaddow's #Ultra podcast series, it will blow your mind away.
It sounds like fiction,#AlternateHistory in particular.
Yes, and after you do, I suggest reading the report, or, at a minimum, the Appendix to it, that the second "Sedition Trial" Special Prosecutor, O. John Rogge, produced following the case being dropped. There are patterns described and solutions proposed there that are relevant today.

@jrredho
Absolutely!
Wow, you found a copy, too.
The only place where I finally found access was the @internetarchive.
I found this copy using DuckDuckGo.
I'm still not sure I know how to use the Internet archive properly. :)

Lol.
I only use #DDG for search, but only found physical copies without remote lending possibilities.
I can really see why #OJohnRogge's book,
The Official German Report Nazi Penetration 1924-1942 Pan-Arabism 1939-Today,
is being stonewalled. It rightly portrays a very bad impression about many branches of the #US Government and its agencies:
1) The Administration:
the #StateDepartment continuously lied to the President..

...and Congress about #Hitler's #Holocaust,
2) The #AttorneyGeneral's office removed the most capable prosecutor from the trial,
3) the intelligence agencies failed to discern the covert German operation led by #Nazi superspy #Viereck,
4) untrained army veterans had to do their job for them to prevent more and more munitions factories being blown up by Nazi field agents.
5) the Nazis managed to corrupt 25 sitting members of #Congress.

...the #NuremburgTrials, the #Judiciary failed completely to purge all branches of government from #Nazis and their piers.
