The Bourgeoisie's Courts

[Justin Schwartz]

The law _as it literally reads,_ if you look at the cases, does not ban 
affirmative action, and in fact allows for it. I wrote a comment on this in 
the Ohio State L.J. for 1997; it's posted on the net, I believe. I don't 
think the law is in accord with a proper read of the 14A, but it would allow 
for affirmative action in lot of contexts. The problem is that even the S.Ct 
does not actually apply the law it writes. --jks
