The US Supreme Court has struck down affirmative action, ruling that race cannot be considered as a factor in college and university admissions. The court's conservative majority ruled that race-conscious admissions programs at Harvard and the University of North Carolina were unconstitutional. The ruling overturns a precedent many institutions had used for decades to boost minority enrolment.
US President Joe Biden sharply criticized the court's ruling and defended race-conscious admissions policies.
