Affirm action has been speared repeatedly by the courts. But each individual school has kept it up just daring anyone to come after them. A legal firm that wants to make it their thing to jam the issue school by school could probably make some money..

I was in the Labor and Employment Group of a very large firm, and we rather blatantly had a very strong hiring preference for black law students because we were being pressured by clients to have more black attorneys. The head of our group -- who was himself black but not "woke" -- openly said it was probably illegal but that we didn't have a choice if we wanted to keep that work.

You could probably bust 90% of the major law firms in this country for unlawful racial hiring preferences. But that edifice will start to crumble if these two cases go the way I think they will.
