Dissent in the Bakke Case.

Marshall, Thurgood

Freedomways, v18 n3 p127-35 1978, 78

While the author applauds the judgment of the Supreme Court that a university may consider race in its admissions process, he considers it ironic that, after several hundred years of class-based discrimination against Blacks, the Court is unwilling to hold that a class-based remedy for that discrimination is permissible.
