Please join the ACS Saint Louis Lawyer Chapter, the ACS WashU Law Student Chapter, and the Saint Louis University School of Law in welcoming Justin Driver, who will discuss his new book The Fall of Affirmative Action: Race, the Supreme Court, and the Future of Higher Education. For decades, affirmative action reshaped not just American higher education but the broader society, opening doors that had been closed for centuries and transforming who entered the pathways to power. But the Supreme Court in 2023 killed affirmative action in Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard, a decision hailed by the right as a triumph of conservative colorblindness and decried by the left as requiring the end of racial equity. Both sides, Yale Law School professor Justin Driver contends, are wrong. Far from a mere eulogy, Driver’s book provides a blueprint for the future—a rallying cry for citizens to forge new paths to inclusion. The death of affirmative action, Driver insists, need not mean the death of opportunity.
Featuring:
Justin Driver is the Robert R. Slaughter Professor of Law at Yale Law School. He is the author of The Schoolhouse Gate, named a Washington Post Notable Book of the Year and a New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice.
