Welcome Back to Nuanced Beauty!


TODAY'S EPISODE

We dive into a more controversial cultural topic of today: the Supreme Court case ruling on Affirmative action. Specifically, what got us reflecting on our thoughts on the matter was listening to another GREAT podcast called Honestly, where Bari Weiss brought on a group of 3 legal professionals to answer some questions and give their thoughts on the ruling. We point out some takeaways we enjoyed while expanding on our thoughts as well. Can law and government drive morality? What's the meaning of Diversity? And how do we measure it? Could income brackets provide a different avenue for achieving diversity than race? Will this ruling cause college admissions to become more ambiguous and hidden? All thoughts we explore today.
