Here is the decision ending race-based affirmative action in college admissions. The decision was 6-3. Sotomayor, Kagan and Jackson dissented. Chief Justice Roberts, who ruled in favor of Black voters last week, delivered the majority opinion here. #SCOTUS #Mastodon #BlackMastodon bit.ly/3rbGR4E

Well, Roberts didn't rule in favor of Black voters last week. That wasn't a question before the Court.

Roberts did rule against a legislature trying to apply federal rights against a state court, though.

It's important to be clear about what the Court is and is not saying, as those are the precedents that work through the system.
