How is affirmative action not, by definition, racism?

And the dean of UC Davis law calls an attempt to eradicate such racism "A Conservative Assault on the Constitution"

LMFAO. Academia is a ****ing joke

I like this statement.

Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. has been particularly skeptical of government programs that take account of race. “Racial balancing is not transformed from ‘patently unconstitutional’ to a compelling state interest simply by relabeling it ‘racial diversity,’ ” he wrote, for instance, in a 2007 decision limiting the use of race to achieve integration in public schools.
