Harvard virtue-signals: DoJ brief finds that 45% of its black and Latino applicants got in on race
By Monica Showalter

Imagine being a talented black or Latino applicant who got into Harvard University. Now there's news that 45% of the blacks and Latinos have been found to have been admitted on race over merit, according to a new Justice department brief, which credibly argues that Harvard engaged in illegal "race-balancing."

Every employer is going to be looking at your diploma and wondering if you were part of the 45%.

Which is a pretty nasty burden to throw onto the talented 55% who got in on merit alone. Everywhere they go, they'll be suspected of not being Harvard material but for the color of their skin. Make a mistake at work? It's because of the Harvard affirmative-action advantage. What an ugly thing to have to worry about for the rest of your life, solely because you are black or Latino. It's the typically lefty good intentions and virtue-signaling that in the real world does blacks and Latinos absolutely no favors.

live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color
of their skin but by the content of their character...

Justice Department: 45% of Blacks at Harvard Admitted Through Illegal Race Preferences

Almost half of all blacks and Hispanics who attend Harvard were admitted because of illegal racial preferences in admissions according to a brief just filed by the Department of Justice.

The Department of Justice filed the brief in a federal lawsuit filed by Students For Fair Admissions. It says Harvard's race-based admissions process violates federal law. This filing marks an extreme departure from the Obama Civil Rights Division that spent significant time and resources seeking to expand the use of race in decision making.

The brief says Harvard "considers applicants’ race at virtually every step, from rating applicants to winnowing the field of applicants when attempting to avoid an oversubscribed class." It notes that forty-five percent of African-Americans and Hispanics at Harvard are there because of racial preferences given to them during the admissions process.

Have the professional race-baiters begun yet calling the brief "RACIST!"?

You might want to check with Elizabeth Warren...I'm sure she knows.

DOJ Accuses Harvard Of Racism, Files Scathing Brief

Harvard, the crème de la crème of Ivy League education, has been proudly engaging in racial discrimination — in 2020.

Harvard has a sordid history of employing and supporting racists and engaging in antisemitic limitations on the admission of Jews. But this article isn't about the past; it is about present-day discrimination of a different group of Harvard-hated students: Asians.

Asians have had their share of discrimination in American history, recall the Chinese Exclusion Act and the Japanese internment camps as examples. But the Asian U.S. community has proven themselves to be resilient and forward-looking, and they have effectively jumped over the hurdles thrown in their path. They were prospering in the United States in the '70s and '80s. By the late 20th century, Asians were succeeding so well at universities that the race bigots in charge of higher-education felt the need to pull Asians back — enter: Asian quotas.

How can it be this liberal bastion of equality would discriminate against people over the color of their skin?

Charles Murray, in his book "The Bell Curve," stated from IQ testing, certain east Asians were several points higher.
