Black Agenda Radio · Glen Ford on the End of Affirmative Action

The recent Supreme Court decision which banned the use of race as a college admissions criterion was just the latest in a long line of court decisions on affirmative action. Black Agenda Report co-founder, the late Glen Ford, spoke to the Real News Network after another affirmative action ruling in 2013. The conversation was presciently called, Supreme Court Ruling May Spell the End of Affirmative Action.
