Asians Were The Great Pawns In Ending Affirmative Action, Now They Can’t Come To America To Study
This and the striking parallels of the deportation of Latinos.
White supremacy has been extremely successful in reinventing itself right through the ages.
Its ability to make other minority groups less conscious of race issues and more compliant has been one of the great successes of the last decades.
The likes of Vivek Ramaswamy and Nikki Haley are fully paid up members of this group and have been willing pawns of white supremacy.
Owing to this dynamic, it came as no surprise that Asian-Americans were the means through which Affirmative Action was struck down by the Supreme Court of the United States of America.
The view was that places which were set aside for African-Americans made it impossible for Asians to study at Ivy League universities and the apex court which is currently in the grip of conservatives, agreed with this view, ending one of the great legislative successes of the last half-century.
Given the tension between the African and Asian American communities, it was only natural that the former would blame the latter for failing to grasp the degree to which their freedoms were won off the backs of their struggle.
