The End of Affirmative Action - Making America Colorblind Again

Summary

In this groundbreaking book, we make a compelling case against affirmative action, arguing that it is a failed policy that has actually harmed the very people it was intended to help.

Affirmative action is based on the assumption that certain groups of people are inherently disadvantaged and therefore deserve preferential treatment. This assumption is not only false, but it is also harmful. It sends the message that members of these groups are not capable of succeeding on their own and that they need special help in order to get ahead. This is a demeaning and demoralizing message that has no place in a free and just society.

Affirmative action also harms the very people it is intended to help. By giving preferential treatment to members of certain groups, affirmative action creates a system in which these groups are constantly being compared to others. This leads to a sense of resentment and division, and it undermines the goal of creating a truly unified society.

In addition to being unfair and harmful, affirmative action is also unnecessary. There is no evidence that affirmative action has actually helped to level the playing field for historically disadvantaged groups. In fact, there is evidence that it has actually made things worse. For example, a study by the National Bureau of Economic Research found that affirmative action programs in higher education have led to a decline in the quality of education for all students.

We believe that colorblind justice is the only way to achieve a truly just and equal society. Colorblind justice means judging individuals solely on their merits, without regard to their race, gender, or other group affiliation. This is the only way to ensure that everyone has a fair shot at success.

This book is a call to action for all Americans who believe in colorblind justice. We must work together to end affirmative action and create a society in which everyone is judged solely on their merits.

    Buried in the soil of Auschwitz lay fragments of voices the Nazis tried to silence forever. They belonged to the Sonderkommando, Jewish prisoners forced into the darkest role of all: to witness and endure the machinery of mass murder. Knowing they would not survive, some risked everything to leave behind their words, their truths, and their warnings for the future. 
Voices From The Ashes unveils these extraordinary clandestine writings, preserved against time and oblivion. With raw honesty and unbearable clarity, they recount not only the brutality of the camp but also the unbroken will to testify, an act of defiance stronger than death itself. 
Both harrowing and profoundly human, this book does more than preserve history—it restores the dignity of the silenced, carrying their words across generations. It is a testament to resilience, memory, and the unyielding demand that the world must never forget. 
Perfect for readers of Holocaust history, survivor testimony, and those drawn to the enduring power of the human spirit, Voices From The Ashes stands as both a memorial and a warning, an urgent reminder carved out of silence and buried in ashes.

    The Apology is Plato's version of the speech given by Socrates as he defended himself in 399 BC against the charges of "corrupting the young, and by not believing in the gods in whom the city believes, but in other daimonia that are novel" . "Apology" here has its earlier meaning of speaking in defense of a cause or of one's beliefs or actions. The general term apology, in context to literature, defends a world from attack (opposite of satire-which attacks the world).the text is written in the first person from Socrates' point of view, as though it were Socrates' actual speech at the trial. During the course of the speech, Socrates twice mentions Plato as being present. There is, however, no real way of knowing how closely Socrates' words in the Apology match those of Socrates at the actual trial, even if it was Plato's intention to be accurate in this respect
