Back... Court affirms importance of racial equality June 25, 2003 By: Maria Padilla Orlando Sentinel Just when it seemed that the principle of affirmative action would be gutted, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the ideal that having American institutions mirror America's population is important. In closely watched cases involving the University of Michigan undergraduate and law schools, the court Monday said it's not OK to create "mechanized formulas" to create diversity, such as Michigan's system of assigning 20 extra points to undergraduate minority applicants. But in the case of the law school, the court "deferred" to the school's judgment that race can be considered in the admissions process. What's more, the court said that the law school's "instincts" to create a racially balanced student body are protected by law. Whoa! This is a big victory for affirmative action. In its split decision, the Supreme Court reflected the nation's queasiness on the subject. Yes, racial balance is important, the court said, but point or quota systems are illegal. It's clear that the court, like the country, has been through the wringer on affirmative action. It's a relief to get over this hump. The country can get back to business, never forgetting that it is immoral to turn your back on even a single member of society.

FreeRepublic .com "A Conservative News Forum" Browse ... FrontPageMagazine.com ^ Posted on 01/22/2003 11:28:50 PM PST by Democrats Don't Have the Constitution for Racial Equality By Ann Coulter FrontPageMagazine.com Like everyone else in the universe, I too have strong opinions about how universities should run their admissions systems. But there is no Ann's Opinion Clause in the Constitution. There is, however, an Equal Protection Clause. The 14th Amendment to the Constitution prohibits states from discriminating on the basis of race. It says: Nor shall any state "deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." That amendment grew out of the Republicans' first big dust-up with the Democrats over race – the Civil War. Then, as now, Democrats demanded the right to discriminate on the basis of race. The 14th Amendment sternly informed Democrats that they would have to stop. Democrats dropped slavery but desperately clung to state-sanctioned race discrimination for another hundred years. It took a Supreme Court ruling in 1954 and a Republican president sending in the National Guard to force Democrats to stop their infernal race discrimination. In the 1954 case Brown v. Board of Education, the Supreme Court held that the Equal Protection Clause prohibited the states from engaging in race discrimination in education. Democrats responded with massive resistance.

FreeRepublic .com "A Conservative News Forum" Browse ... World Socialist Web Site ^ Posted on 05/01/2004 10:02:47 AM PDT by Jakarta ex-pat The different world in question is the world dictated by the right-wing social and economic nostrums of the Labour government, its warmongering and attacks on democratic rights in the name of the so-called fight against terror. Phillips is hurriedly swinging race relations policy into line with a regime that systematically persecutes Muslims, who make up the majority of those detained merely on suspicion of involvement with possible terrorist offences. Multiculturalism is a vague word that means different things to different people. But it has come to indicate a whole range of policies that have been developed since the Race Relations Act of 1976 that set up the CRE. The official literature of the CRE does not specifically mention multiculturalism, but the organisation is very much identified with it. At the most basic level the 1976 Act made it illegal to discriminate in employment and other areas of public life on the basis of race. The task of the commission is to monitor the implementation of this act and its subsequent amendments, to advise the government generally on the race relations implications of legislation and to help individuals bring court proceedings in cases of discrimination in addition to advising companies and local councils on equal opportunities policies. It is in this latter area that the commission has done most to sponsor multiculturalism.

SEARCH Home No Left Turns: The Ashbrook Center Blog Ashbrook Columnists Robert Alt Andrew E. Busch John C. Eastman Christopher Flannery ... Other Sites of Interest Historical and Modern Perspectives of Racial Equality Res Publica July 1998 by: Jennifer Zahn We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. These lines, penned by Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence, have established a legacy of equality for the citizens of the United States since its birth in 1776. Throughout history, this legacy has been open to many interpretations. Questions of equality have been continually raised regarding race, sex, and other distinctive factors that separate humanity. Many have speculated about Jefferson’s true meaning when he mentioned equality in this excerpt from the declaration , the United States’ original proclamation that made its inhabitants "one people." These words created, among Americans, a moral bond of principle, and the factors of time and circumstance have shaped the meaning in a variety of ways. However, Jefferson did have a distinctive meaning implied within his words. What was the intent of the father of these eloquent phrases, the author of these expressions that lay the foundation of equality in America? In dissecting the opening phrase, "We hold these truths to be self-evident," one finds that Jefferson asserted a powerful concept. That is, the mind can perceive what is truly right. Once one reflects on that truth he cannot deny it thus making the truth self-evident. However, it is important to note that these truths are not innate; otherwise every political system would be based on these principles, and that in itself makes the American regime most unique. The first self-evident truth states that all men are created equal. Jefferson, being a student of political theorist John Locke, perceived all men as equals in the sense that they are equally free. This does not imply that all men are equal in their talents and intellectual faculities. All men are free based on the commonality of their humanity. Thus humanity is the only requirement.

Bush hopes to make election-year inroads among black Americans skeptical of his commitment to equal opportunity. In 2000, blacks supported Democrat Al Gore by a 9-1 margin. With the two-story brick schoolhouse behind him, Bush spoke to adults who lived through the civil-rights era and kids just learning about the Brown case. Kerry, speaking to an audience that included civil-rights leaders, said that half a century after the 1954 Brown v. Topeka Board of Education case, schools remain underfunded and divided by income. The health-care system has too many disparities by race and one-third of black children live in poverty, Kerry said. Bush opposes affirmative action programs for minorities.

December 1863 President Abraham Lincoln announces his reconstruction plan. It offers general amnesty to all white Southerners who take an oath of future loyalty and accept wartime measures abolishing slavery. Whenever 10% of the number of 1860 voters take the loyalty oath in any state, those loyal citizens can then establish a state government. In early 1864 the governments of Louisiana, Arkansas, and Tennessee are reconstructed under Lincoln’s "Ten Percent Plan." Radical Republicans are shocked at the policy’s leniency, so Congress refuses to recognize the governments or seat their elected federal representatives. July 1864 Congress passes its own reconstruction plan, the Wade-Davis bill. It requires a majority of 1860 voters to take a loyalty oath, but only those who swear an "ironclad" oath of never having fought against the Union can participate in reconstructing their state’s government. Congress requires the state constitutions to include bans on slavery, disfranchisement of Confederate political and military leaders, and repudiation of Confederate state debts. After Congress adjourns, Lincoln refuses to sign the Wade-Davis bill, so it is "pocket-vetoed" and not implemented. March 1865 Congress creates the Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen, and Abandoned Lands, commonly known as the Freedmen’s Bureau, within the War Department. It provides temporary relief to the freedpeople in the form of basic shelter and medical care, assistance in labor-contract negotiation, the establishment of schools, and similar services. At its peak, though, the Freedmen’s Bureau only has 900 agents in the South.

Home Why VDARE? VDARE People Pages VDARE Links ... Printer Friendly Version... June 02, 2003 No Equal Protection for Whites? By Paul Craig Roberts Sometime this month, perhaps before this column is published, the Supreme Court will rule on the University of Michigan’s racial quotas. Both in law school and undergraduate admissions, the university intentionally discriminates against white applicants in favor of “preferred minorities.” It is obvious that the university’s policy violates equality before the law and the Constitution’s equal protection clause. For three decades the constitutional issue has been finessed. Initially, Americans were reassured that racial quotas were to be temporary and would be phased out before they could endanger equal rights for whites. However, temporary expedients have a way of becoming permanent . Today racial quotas are required in order to avoid federal civil rights lawsuits in behalf of “preferred minorities.” As practically every university in the country uses one scheme or another to discriminate in favor of “preferred minorities,” the Michigan case will determine whether “preferred minorities” are admitted on the basis of merit or on the privilege of skin color.

Since humankind developed on this planet, we have roamed its surface in search of better resources or in our escape of natural disasters or predators - or by being driven on by an indomitable curiosity. Our ability to adapt to the varieties of climate and general environment has been one of the factors that ensured our survival from the beginning. Because of this marvellous adaptability we have developed differences in the degrees of pigment contained in skin, hair and eyes according to the climate of areas in which our ancestors have settled at times during their migrations, whether permanently or temporarily. Apart from these superficial biological diversities, we have also been variously influenced by the differing religions and cultures that have sprung up throughout the world. When we consider that all human beings share common needs and aspirations, our minor differences ought to pale into insignificance. And yet, it is these very differences that have been the cause of so much hate, discrimination, exclusion and persecution - such a tendency to place one 'type' of person above another as superior or more worthy - and the concept that one 'race' has the right to dominate and oppress another. Racism and prejudice are persistent obstacles to the attainment of a just and peaceful society. Only when the essential oneness of all humanity is recognised and respected can we expect to achieve this. The websites listed here are to sources which are striving to demonstrate the sadness and the harm that racism brings to us all.

British Studies Web Pages HOME MAIL EVENTS INFO ... BOOK REVIEWS Website of the Month - November 2002 Commission for Racial Equality (CRE) www.cre.gov.uk Value for ELT contemporary issues/realia/ culture background/ culture projects/ general interest/ British Studies Producer of site (and intended audience) The CRE, set up in 1976 as part of the Race Relations Act, is full of irresolvable contradictions - it has been set up by the government (a quango) yet finds itself continually in conflict with it. In a sense the government is also its main audience, along with other established institutions in society. The general public is not addressed specifically and often finds itself taking the role of interested, sometimes critical, observer. The Commission for Racial Equality works in partnership with individuals and organisations for a fair and just society which values diversity and gives everyone an equal chance to work, learn and live free from discrimination, prejudice and racism. The groups it represents have mixed feelings about its approach, what it stands for and its claimed achievements. It is mostly non-European in focus and has an unclear ambivalent relation with Scotland, Wales and Ireland (the Welsh language seems strongly supported in its publications whereas Scottish and Irish Gaelic seem to be absent). A particularly sensitive role is where different ethnic groups are in conflict with one another. It is very exposed publicly and recent problems including a scandal resulting in the resignation of its director mean it remains in a very sensitive position. Continuing concerns at the moment are islamophobia and the highly controversial so-called ‘citizenship tests’ to decide who should have the right to live in Britain.

August 19, 2003 By David Pitts Washington File Special Correspondent (On August 23, Martin Luther King III, son of Martin Luther King Jr., will lead a coalition of groups in a rally to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the historic March on Washington which culminated in Dr. King's famous "I Have a Dream" speech. This is the first of two articles to mark the occasion) Washington It was a march and a speech that the world cannot forget. Forty years ago on August 28 an estimated 250,000 people marched to the Lincoln Memorial in Washington where they heard Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. give a speech of unsurpassable eloquence. Known ever since from its "I Have a Dream" passages, the speech gave impassioned voice to the demands of the U.S. civil rights movement equal rights for all citizens, including those who were born black and brown. The speech particularly, coming near the close of the then largest demonstration in U.S. history, created a new spirit of hope across the land. It was one of those rare moments in history that changed a nation paving the way for a transformation of American law and life.

Mid-Year Meeting 2004 June 14-18, 2004 - Portland, Oregon Mid-Year Meeting Home Racial Justice Workshop Environmental Law Conference Property Law Conference ... Registration AALS Workshop on Racial Justice in a New Millennium From Brown to Grutter : Methods to Achieve Non Discrimination and Comparable Racial Equality Why, Who, When Schedule Fees Why Attend? Brown v. Board of Education is the path-breaking case dealing with racial equality, and it has heralded the modern era in the U.S. in which all people are to be treated without consideration of their skin color. For the past fifty years, the courts and society have struggled with how to make the dictates of the Brown decision a reality. During this time period, people of color have made remarkable strides in society, and the era of state-sanctioned segregation formally ended. Although these gains have faced recent attacks in the Grutter and Gratz cases, the Supreme Court provided those who believe in diversity with a welcome victory proclaiming diversity as a fundamental American value. In light of the victory in Grutter, the workshop will reassess the future of equality, ways to meet expected future challenges to these principals, and ways to bring equality to the many individuals who have been left out of these gains so far. Faculty members struggle with ways to introduce concepts of equality in their courses. This workshop will provide pedagogic insights into these issues by exploring: (1) different notions of race by examining how racial construction adapts to different circumstances; (2) the role of race in inequality by examining the intersections of race and national origin, race and gender, and race and sexuality; (3) different notions of equality by examining disparities that exist between different groups and examining what equality really means; (4) old methods of achieving equality such as affirmative action, discrimination litigation, boycotts, and community action; (5) new methods for remedying inequality such as reparations.
