Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas
(WASHINGTON EXAMINER) – Justice Clarence Thomas issued a scathing rebuke of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson's dissent in the Supreme Court's decision in Students for Fair Admissions v. President and Fellows of Harvard College, in which a 6-3 majority ruled affirmative action policies in college admissions are unconstitutional.
In his 58-page concurrence, Thomas said Jackson's connection between racial groups and "levels of health, wealth, and well-being" was locking "blacks into a seemingly perpetual inferior caste."
“So Justice Jackson supplies the link herself: the legacy of slavery and the nature of inherited wealth. This, she claims, locks blacks into a seemingly perpetual inferior caste," Thomas wrote. "Such a view is irrational; it is an insult to individual achievement and cancerous to young minds seeking to push through barriers, rather than consign themselves to permanent victimhood."
