From Zocalo Public Square:
Americans of Asian heritage are no different than other Americans in wishing to live
in a country where educational and work opportunities are open to all, not just a
select few. … If we chuck affirmative action policies out the window, as the Asian-American
plaintiffs would like, we are only narrowing the chances even further for nearly all
Americans. … Jennifer Lee is … professor of sociology at the University of California,
Irvine.
