“America is an idea, an idea unique in the world,” President Joe Biden said last week when responding to the Supreme Court’s decision to end race-based admissions preferences in universities. “An idea of hope and opportunity, of possibilities, of giving everyone a fair shot, of leaving no one behind.”
According to a new Pew Research Center analysis of Census Bureau data released last week, a record high 25% of 40-year-olds have never been married. The collapse of marriage has not affected all communities equally. It is poor and black communities that have suffered the most.For all the controversy that the Supreme Court’s affirmative action decision generated, the reality is that the elite institutions that use race-based admissions educate less than 5% of all college students.
This huge gap in marriage ends up causing significant differences in educational success as children age. One Harvard study found that both black and white children who never had a father in the home by the time they reached 18 had an identical 58% chance of graduating from high school on time.
