Texican-I could really see another country from my backyard. I connect dots & ideas to support movements. Writing. Speaking. This is the world according to Me.

I wanted to share some of my thoughts on today's Supreme Court decision on affirmative action:
The @gatesfoundation is committed, alongside our partners and grantees, to ensuring all students – including and especially Black, Latino, and Indigenous students and students from low-income backgrounds – achieve their educational goals and that race, ethnicity, and income are no longer predictors of student success in any facet of life. Our promise stems from our mission to address longstanding systemic inequities that make it challenging for some people to reach their full potential. The U.S. Supreme Court’s decision that it is unconstitutional for colleges and universities to consider race during the admissions process will negatively impact many students of color, limiting their access to educational opportunities that create a path to a better living and a better life. Postsecondary education is a proven ladder out of poverty, a key to the middle class and better job opportunities, but the sad reality is that access to education has never been provided equally in America. While the breadth and depth of the implications this decision will have on the field of higher education and beyond is not yet known, we will continue to work every day to create meaningful impact that narrows equity gaps and increases opportunity.
