As black Americans move further and further away from Uncle Sam's Plantation, as the same old race-baiting bullshit is starting to fall on deaf ears...even amongst black Americans.
Poll shows many Black Americans support SCOTUS affirmative action ruling
A Thursday Washington Post article weighed in on last week’s U.S. Supreme Court decision to dismantle affirmative action practices in college admissions, citing a poll showing that African Americans are "unlikely to strongly object" to the decision.
The poll also demonstrated that more Black Americans strongly support the ruling rather than oppose it, though the paper argued that the demographic has little "perceived personal connection to the policy," that "Affirmative action is difficult to poll," and that people like "race-blind policies in theory but less so in practice."
The Post staff writer Aaron Blake penned the analysis of the poll, declaring that, in line with his previous assessment that the Supreme Court’s decision "seemed unlikely to spark a significant backlash," the new poll shows that "even Black Americans are unlikely to strongly object" to it.
He noted how, "The data, from an Economist/YouGov poll conducted after the Supreme Court’s decision, shows Americans approving of it more than 2-to-1." Blake added, "Another poll conducted after the decision, for ABC News, showed Americans approved of it by a 20-point margin."
Citing the Black people surveyed in the Economist/YouGov poll, he added, "Indeed, more of them actually approved of the decision (more than 4 in 10) than disapproved (fewer than 4 in 10). And more Black Americans ‘strongly’ approved (31 percent) than disapproved (26 percent)."
Blake pointed out that while polls have historically shown "Black Americans in favor of affirmative action" generally, other polls have shown that the group has "supported banning the use of race and ethnicity in admissions."
