Janice S. Ellis, Ph.D has done it again

Dr. Ellis presenting on her book Liberty to Magnolia

The groundbreaking author of Shaping Public Opinion, which won the Nellie Bly Grand Prize Award, and From Liberty to Magnolia, which won the Journey Grand Prize Award, has written an article that’s being featured nationwide on President Biden’s choice to appoint the first Black woman to the supreme court.

Dr. Ellis begins by setting the record straight and defining Affirmative Action:

Affirmative action has a long history in this country as an attempt to stop and correct the systemic discrimination and oppression of Blacks. The initial attempts began during the Reconstruction Era (1863-1877) shortly after the Civil War.

Furthermore, Dr. Ellis points out the double standard that Affirmative Action is being invoked as the reasona behind putting a Black woman on the Supreme Court, saying:

Was it considered affirmative action or out of line when President Ronald Reagan declared while campaigning that he would appoint the first woman to the Supreme Court? Was it affirmative action when he followed through and appointed Sandra Day O’Connor?
