More Black Americans Support Supreme Court Affirmative Action Ruling Than Oppose It

A new poll from YouGov/The Economist reveals that more black Americans support last month’s Supreme Court decision to strike down race-based admission policies at colleges.

According to the poll, 44% of black respondents said they ‘at least somewhat’ support the recent rulings in Students for Fair Admissions v. University of North Carolina and Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard, which eliminated race-based admissions practices from college campuses. 36% of blacks polled disapproved of the decision.
