Summary: In 'A Legacy of Discrimination', Lee C. Bollinger and Geoffrey R. Stone trace the history of affirmative action and the legal challenges it has faced over the decades. They introduce evolving, affirmative-action case law that sought to dismantle racism and enable social, educational, and economic progress for Black people and other minority groups. They demonstrate how and why affirmative action policies stand on firm legal ground and must remain protected. A timely and robust overview of affirmative action, this book will serve as a powerful defense of a policy that has accomplished more than most people realize in making America a fairer and more inclusive country.
