The document discusses the implications of the case Walker v. City of Mesquite, highlighting how recent judicial trends protect white plaintiffs while undermining civil rights for minorities. It critiques the concept of 'narrow tailoring' in race-conscious remedies, arguing that courts often prioritize the protection of whiteness over addressing systemic racial discrimination.
