Imagine a world where the color of your skin doesn't determine your opportunities? Can we truly stop discrimination by ceasing to discern based on race? These burning questions take center stage as we dissect the controversial issue of Affirmative Action, particularly in the context of college admissions. We scrutinize the Supreme Court's most recent decision, delving into the case brought by Students for Fair Admissions against Harvard and UNC. By shedding light on Affirmative Action's origins and its moral argument, we aim to provide an in-depth understanding of this contentious subject.

We go beyond the legal structure of the Affirmative Action case, exploring the moral complexities of justice in this context. Hear us as we analyze the Chief Justice's declaration and President Biden's response to the court's majority decision. We also examine the college admissions process, specifically how race stands as a factor in some universities.
Lastly, we dive into another heated topic, exploring the Supreme Court's decision in the case of a Colorado baker refusing to make a wedding cake for a same-sex couple due to religious beliefs. We discuss ideologies behind the decision, its possible implications on the LGBTQ community rights, and its impact on the future of the nation. From Affirmative Action to free speech against LGBTQ rights, we invite you on this journey to uncover, understand, and navigate some of the most pressing legal and social issues of our time
