Harris, a lawyer and former state attorney general, knows that under Chief Justice John Roberts, the conservative-dominated Supreme Court has little patience for racial preferences. In 2023, the court found it unconstitutional to consider race in college admissions, overturning precedents that since 1978 had found the goal of student diversity sufficient to justify affirmative action policies. “Eliminating racial discrimination means eliminating all of it,” Roberts wrote for the court, including well-intentioned programs administered in good faith.

The activist behind the admissions litigation, Edward Blum, has since been warning government agencies, nonprofit foundations and private companies to end race-conscious programs or face a lawsuit. Several have complied. In September, for instance, Atlanta-based Fearless Fund, which promotes minority female entrepreneurs, settled a Blum-filed lawsuit by agreeing to end a grant program that awarded $20,000 to small businesses led by women of color.

Blum promised to sue a Harris administration if it enacted what she seemed to be promising. “Racially exclusive programs like the one she has proposed have been repeatedly struck down by the courts in the past,” he said.

Even though the Agenda for Black Men programs will be open to everyone, the Harris campaign insisted it wasn’t misleading the target audience. The vice president assembled the ideas after hearing “powerful stories from Black men about the biggest hurdles that still make it too difficult for them to get their businesses off the ground,” a campaign handout says. Some proposals are sure to benefit the target group, such as increasing federal efforts to combat sickle cell disease. According to the National Institutes of Health, 90% of those afflicted are Black.

So, like with the Black Farmer case, they are playing smart to avoid being sued but cant directly say things are JUST for black peole

not with republicans suing and being able to count on Trump's supreme court

It's like people completely forgot what JUST happened with affirmative action.

It's like people completely forgot what JUST happened with affirmative action.

You mean affirmative action that benefited white women more than anyone?

 

[Thurgood Thurston III]

You mean affirmative action that benefited white women more than anyone?

Sure. That was the reality of it.

But Asians didn't know that.

Black people were reasons that were cited. That case was really just to set a precedent.

How about this:

Fearless Fund drops grant program for Black women business owners in lawsuit settlement

A venture capital firm has closed a grant program for Black women business owners as part of a settlement with a conservative group that had filed a lawsuit alleging the program was discriminatory.

That piece of shyt Ed Blum is on a mission to sue anything that directly benefits black people.

So why say in the first place then? You run the risk of having some of those voters not knowing the actual reasoning behind the pivot and think that you’re doing a rug pull by changing the messaging.

Sounds like her team didn’t think it all the way through before putting it out there.

Y'all idiots claim y'all don't want to be pandered to but then cry for Kamala to come up with an initiative she knows has no chance of coming to fruition because it would be challenged and SCOTUS would strike it down. If y'all wanted to be able to have laws put in place exclusively for black people there was plenty of work that needed to be done that wasn't done prior to Kamala being elected.

No, thats not how this works. If she says nothing, she doesn’t care about black people, the men in particular. Anyone who is politically aware enough to ask for a platform should be aware enough to contextualize the climate we are in. A candidate for office can only do so much dumbing down. Most regular people dont start paying attention to politics until after labor day so that means they ignored a whole lot to get to this point.
