Consider Claude Steele, the Stanford social psychologist. These policies have gradually created a conscionably diverse professional class without major displacement of other groups. I do not believe we should drop it without a compelling alternative. Without affirmative action, blacks advancement strategies would have been different more small businesses and fewer government jobs, for example and, arguably, more productive. Well, both Steele and Sleeper cannot be right.
Somebody is wrong.
And the evidence shows that it ain t Mr. Sleeper. Too bad someone didn t tell Jesse. He might have been spared a buck or two for hiking boots. All rights reserved.
