STREET BEAT: ‘What did you think of the affirmative action decision?’

Logan Langlois
Nashville
“It’s abysmal. It is an excuse to work against progress that has been made in affirmative action. It could only have been made with a Supreme Court as right leaning as this one.”

Kellee Jordan
Detroit
“It’s funny because it’s under the false pretense that race doesn’t matter when we’ve seen over and over a lot of incidents because of race.”

Kim Jones
Nashville
“It’s wrong. But as with everything this Supreme Court has done, it will come back to bite them. … We will persevere and we will come out on top.”

Phyllis Qualls
Nashville
“I’m appalled that the Supreme Court would abolish affirmative action. … It’s an equity opportunity for people to grow.”
