White GOPer Charges Racism at Tenn. Black Caucus: "Stefanie Lindquist, a professor of law and political science at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, said the case sets the Constitution against itself.
'You have, in effect, one piece of the Constitution pitted against another piece of the Constitution the First Amendment freedom of association pitted against the equal protection clauses of the 14th Amendment,' she said. 'Hard to say which one will win out.'"
When a black man is refused admittance, because of his skin color, to an all white organization that is racism. When a white man is refused admittance, because of his skin color, to an all black organization that is racism. What part of this doesn't work?
Never met Stephanie Lundquist but I hate to hear that she is teaching law and political science at Vanderbuilt (a wonderful university by the way) and she sees a constitutional conflict. There is none. White men were stripped of their freedom of association rights years ago. Either integrate all organizations or give white males their right to freedom of association back.
