		<description><![CDATA[The battle to overturn racial neutrality in California&#8217;s government continues. The San Francisco Chronicle reports that a federal court will consider a challenge to Proposition 209, a voter-approved law that bars the government from granting preferences to or discriminating against individuals or groups based on race in education, employment, and contracting. And Governor Jerry Brown [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve always wondered why a &#8220;holistic&#8221; admissions review process would increase diversity. If the admissions committee applies such a review to all applicants equally, in what way would it favor blacks and Hispanics? Perhaps my wondering is in vain and assumptions incorrect. At any rate, the University of California at Santa Cruz will emphasize &#8220;personal [...]]]></description>

He also contended that some blacks, no matter how successful or untouched by racial discrimination, have an urge to keep &#8220;whitey on the hook,&#8221; to never let white people forget historical grievances.

On Saturday, Governor Jerry Brown vetoed SB 185, a bill that sought to bring back racial preferences in violation of California&#8217;s constitution.
