A recent Gallup Center on Black Voices report reveals a generational divide among Black adults regarding the impact of ending affirmative action on higher education and their racial group. While a majority of Americans across all races view the end of affirmative action as “mostly a good thing,” Black adults are split on the issue.
According to the survey, 56% of Black adults aged 40 and older view last year’s Supreme Court ruling, which prohibits colleges and universities from considering race in admissions, negatively. Conversely, 62% of young Black adults see the decision positively.
