概要
This episode features podcasters Nellie Herrera-Martinez, Diana Vera-Alba, and Ildi Carrillo as they unpack the long, complicated history of affirmative action through story, data, and lived experience. Beginning with the Civil Rights Act, Executive Order 11246, and the early foundations of educational equity, we explore how affirmative action sought to repair generations of exclusion rather than provide “handouts.” The episode then examines key turning points such as California’s Proposition 209 and the 2023 Supreme Court decision that ended race-conscious admissions nationwide. Through accessible explanations and counterstories, we highlight how so-called “color-blind” policies have deepened inequities and shifted the burden onto community colleges and under-resourced institutions. Ultimately, we call for admissions systems that honor resilience, belonging, and lived experience alongside traditional metrics of merit.
Hosts: Nellie Herrera-Martinez, Diana Vera-Alba, and Ildi Carrillo
