Stephen A. Smith defends affirmative action after SCOTUS ruling: African Americans were being 'shortchanged'

Stephen A. Smith defends affirmative action after SCOTUS ruling: African Americans were being 'shortchanged'

Fox News
Saturday, July 8, 2023 3:08 AM GMT

ESPN host Stephen A. Smith shares his thoughts on the Supreme Court ending affirmative action in college admissions and why the policy was implemented in the first place on 'Fox News Tonight.'

He told "Fox News Tonight" that affirmative action was an "effort to even the playing scales to some degree because of the inequities exacted against the African American community in this country."  Ashley Carnahan is a production assistant at Fox News Digital.

"It wasn't about giving them an advantage. It was about highlighting the fact that they were discriminated [against], meaning we were discriminated against at that particular moment in time. And that's why the policy was instituted to begin with," Smith argued.

The Supreme Court struck down the decades-old practice of allowing race to be considered in college admissions by a vote of 6-3. Students for Fair Admissions, the group that brought the case against Harvard and the University of North Carolina, praised the decision, saying it "marks the beginning of the restoration of the colorblind legal covenant that binds together our multi-racial, multi-ethnic nation."
