Is Harvard bias against Asian Americans? The current lawsuit explained

Is one of the top private schools in the U.S. systematically discriminating against Asians and Asian Americans? That’s what a trial taking place in Boston, Massachusetts is trying to figure out. The lawsuit, brought by non-profit group Students for Fair Admissions (SFFA) in 2014, represents an anonymous group of Asian Americans who were rejected for admission by Harvard University. The case claims that Harvard has, for decades, unfairly discriminated against Asians applying to the Ivy League school. But some critics, including civil rights groups AND members of the Asian community, believe the lawsuit is dangerous and the plaintiffs are using this case as a step towards dismantling affirmative action entirely. It’s a case where the outcome could affect the future of affirmative action and other diversity policies in the United States.
