Where do you see anything remotely comparable to the Little Rock 9 at UCLA?

Edit: Incidentally, Trump absolutely gutted the Department of Education, including the Office of Civil Rights, appointing loyalists who explicitly don’t believe it should exist. Are these the actions of a president concerned with civil rights?

Also, indulge us in a wild guess as to what Trump would’ve done to the Little Rock 9. Consider that he signed a full-page newspaper ad calling for the death of the Central Park 5, a wrongfully convicted group of Black and Latino teenagers.

Invoking our civil rights legacy here is perverse.

Also, Republicans just torched the DOJ's division for for prosecuting Civil Rights violations, staffing down by 70%.

Their goal isn't to build legal cases against actual offenses, their goal is extortion.
