In Affirmative Action Controversy, Telemundo Declares: ‘Trump Against Minorities’

PAULINA SODI, NEWS ANCHOR, UN NUEVO DIA: President Trump’s administration has put an end to the practice of universities that favor the admission of racial and gender minorities to promote diversity. The suspension breaks with the guidelines that began to be applied in 2011 under the administration of Barrack Obama, in a policy called Affirmative Action. Under the new system, schools will stop considering race as a criteria of admission. Civil rights groups raised their voice against the new measure, that they consider a step backwards.
