Racial Preference: Busing Redux

I’ve argued before too many times to cite them all that today’s arguments for “diversity” reprise, note for note, yesterday’s arguments for race-based busing. (For samples, see here, here, here, here, and here, and then here for a reference to employment preferences as “economic busing.”)

I think this observation is not even controversial, since those on the other side agree:

Wade Henderson, executive director of the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights, sees something deeply symbolic in the battle [over MCRI]. Michigan, in his eyes, is where resegregation began — with a 1974 U.S. Supreme Court decision that tossed out a plan to bus Detroit children to the suburbs.

Say What?
