There is a policy concerning the use of race in school placement involving Seattle up before the SCOTUS, and the loyal defenders of Seattle liberalism, the PU PI, has gone unhinged to defend it.

The case involves the Seattle open choice policy, where parents could ask to send their students to particular schools instead of depending on district boundaries, and its use of race as a tiebreaker.

U.S. Supreme Court to hear Seattle’s school racial-tiebreaker case

Seattle Public Schools will be under a constitutional microscope Monday when the U.S. Supreme Court hears arguments on whether the district acted properly when it used race to assign students to its most popular schools

Can this be right?  All these years after the landmark Brown v Board of Education case which intergrated schools, why is race a factor again?

The case asks fundamental questions about the extent to which governments can use race to promote diversity, Kmiec said.

Specifically: Is a racially diverse student body a "compelling government interest," as previously defined by the Supreme Court, that justifies the use of race to determine where kids go to school?
