"After 2007 section"
The After 2007 section states: "Even those school districts that voluntarily created race-conscious programs are under pressure to abandon these efforts as the white parents are refusing to participate in any pupil assignment programs. In some cases, white parents filed reverse discrimination lawsuits in court." While the term "reverse discrimination" is not expressly included in federal civil rights laws, these types of lawsuits are generally brought as discrimination cases under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and other statutes. Because anti-discrimination laws were originally enacted to prevent discrimination against minorities and groups that were historically disadvantaged and denied opportunities in the workplace, there has sometimes existed a perception that members of majority groups are not protected by the same laws. However, these laws generally prohibit all forms of discrimination based on protected characteristics, including those against members of a majority group (as established by the U.S. Supreme Court's 1976 McDonald vs. Santa Fe Trail Transport Co. decision). I am wondering if anyone can provide a anything remotely resembling a citation in this seemingly ad libbed nonsense? I propose to eliminate the section entirely as it is entirely uncited and the use of the term "reverse discrimination" suggests bias.

The most common cite in the article: A David Frum book
It's problematic that the article is overwhelmingly reliant on a book by David Frum who is not a subject-matter expert or scholar. He's a pundit with no specific expertise on this topic. Thenightaway (talk) 18:25, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
