And we know that polling is all over the place on this issue. Sometimes majorities say we don't think that people should be let into college because of their race, depending on the way the question is worded.

Do you have a sense of how this might play out? 어떻게 전개될지 감이 오시나요?

*aggrieved [əˈɡriːvd] 피해를 입은, 억울한, 분개한

 

DEI는 "다양성(Diversity), 평등(Equity), 포용성(Inclusion)"을 나타내는 약어이다. DEI 프로그램은 조직이 다양한 배경과 경험을 가진 사람들을 적극적으로 유치하고 인종, 성별, 성적 정체성, 장애 등의 차별을 해소하여 조직 내 공정성과 포용성을 촉진하기 위해 개발된 프로그램이다.

DEI 프로그램은 조직 문화, 정책, 절차, 실천에 대한 개선을 통해 다양한 인재 유치, 진급 기회 제공, 평등한 대우, 차별 금지 등을 목표로 한다.

 

*enslavement 노예화

*endemic 풍토

"ignoring inequality will not make it disappear. Today's endemic segregation continues, and the opinion of the court today is based on a fiction that racial inequality will end at a particular time."

*reverberate [rɪvɜːrbəreɪt] 울려퍼지다, 떠나갈 듯하다, 반향을 불러 일으키다

The ruling included two cases. The case concerning the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill was 6-3 along ideological lines; in the Harvard case, the vote was 6-2, with Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson recusing. The decision reversed decades of precedent upheld over the years by narrow court majorities that included Republican-appointed justices.
