In 2020, the Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology in Alexandria, Va., overhauled its admission standards following the murder of George Floyd. Among the policies enacted at the time were the removal of standardized entry tests and the allocation of admissions evenly across the system’s feeder schools, rather than taking the top applicants across the entire district. Consequently, Asian-American student enrollment nosedived from 73 percent to 54 percent the first year the changes went into effect while Hispanic and black representation grew exponentially.

This constitutes racial oppression of asian american students bring their number.
Unfortunately, some idiots here attempt to rationalize by citing asian american are still more than half so the racial suppression from 73% to 54% is justified, which is as racist as it would be to forcibly exclude a few African Americans from the NBA and justifying it by claiming they are still the majority.

Going after strength of any particular race is racist, and constitutes racial oppression, whether it is blacks in NBA or asian americans at TJ. No more racial attacks by evil forces in authoritative positions.

Discrimination based on race is unacceptable. It is unconstitutional to prevent a young African American from playing basketball at the county gym simply because there are already other kids with the same skin color inside. Denying admission based on a child''s skin color is a racist act. Similarly, it is both unconstitutional and discriminatory to deny entry to an Asian American student into a public STEM school just because there are already many students enrolled with the same skin color as theirs.

A legal battle between a program that awards grants to female entrepreneurs of color and a conservative nonprofit organization is expected to raise broader legal questions on the use of diversity programs in corporate America.

The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta ruled on Saturday to temporarily block the Fearless Fund from running its Strivers Grant Contest, which awards $20,000 grants to small businesses that are led by at least one woman of color and other requirements.

The panel of judges decided 2-1 that the venture capital fund is "racially discriminatory."

In a statement to NPR on Monday, Blum said his organization is pleased by the court's most recent decision and hopeful for a favorable outcome.

"The members of the American Alliance for Equal Rights are gratified that the 11th Circuit has recognized the likelihood that the Fearless Strivers Grant Contest is illegal. We look forward to the final resolution of this lawsuit," Blum said.

TJ case is next!

All of these examples you provided involve explicit qualifications based on race. The TJ case does not.

Supreme Court precedent actually favors measures similar to what FCPS did with respect to university admissions.

When there is no 'racial' intent unlike the TJ case.

By all means, please feel free to cite your conclusive proof that the intent of the admissions changes was specifically to reduce the proportion of Asian students at TJ.

Still crickets....

Can you explain the twisted logic that it took to get from an 11th circuit ruling about grants that are facially discriminatory to TJ?

What is the use of explaining anything to you when you blindly repeat the narrative provided to you? When presented with facts, brainwashed individuals like you experience cognitive dissonance, which leads to discomfort and defensiveness rather than a willingness to reconsider the misinformation that you have been told to believe.

DP. No one is blindly repeating anything and no one is giving any narrative to anyone, at least on my side of the fence. There is no entity similar to the Coalition for TJ and there are no individuals similar to AN, HJ, or NM that are out there spewing some company line that's been provided to them by PDE or whoever on this side.

On this side you have a bunch of individuals who have all come to their own conclusion that what is going on right now is better for TJ, better for FCPS, and FAR better for the health of Northern Virginia middle and elementary school kids.

It is not and it has never been about reducing the proportion of Asian students at TJ. Reducing the proportion of Asian students at TJ has no inherent value on its own and anyone who argues that it does is a horrific, irredeemable racist. It is and has always been about creating pathways for students from underprivileged backgrounds and marginalized communities within FCPS - who are still inarguably excellent, qualified, and meritorious students and are proving it as we speak - to both benefit from and more importantly, to contribute to the phenomenal academic environment at TJ.

As I've said a million times here, if the new admissions process had resulted in a demographic of 70% Asian, 10% Black, 10% Hispanic and 10% white, with 20-25% of the total being from disadvantaged socioeconomic backgrounds, FCPS and the Admissions Office would have been thrilled.

The group of people that are impacted the most by the changes are not identifiable by their race - they are identifiable by their socioeconomic status and their geographic location.

You repeat lies enough times and you might even start to believe them yourself. You must believe in the ideology of 'Remedy for past discrimination is present discrimination..."

You want to know who got it the worst in the new admissions process? Private school kids.

The raw number of Asian students offered admission went from 355 in 2024 to 299 in 2025, a decrease of 15.8%. Not great, but really not catastrophic either when you consider that they continued to have the strongest hit rate per applicant of any demographic. As I've said before, if the new admissions process was intended to discriminate against Asian students, it did an objectively terrible job of it.

But the raw number of private/homeschooled students offered admission plummeted from 51 in 2024 to 15 in 2025, a decrease of 70.6%. And because of the increase in the total offer numbers across the board, the proportion of private school students offered admission went from 10.5% in 2024 to a paltry 2.7% in 2025.

You NEVER hear those numbers cited by any of these folks. Why? Because it's easier to argue for re-orienting the system to benefit the wealthy when you play the race card.

Nope. You won't find me arguing for reparations like you hear some people do now.

The remedy for past discrimination - or at least the beginning of the process of remedy for it - is the removal of present discrimination. And the old admissions system inarguably discriminated against Black students, Hispanic students, and poor students. Period.

Racial suppression of Asian American students.
Shouldn't be happening, not to African Americans students in basketball, not to white students in ice hockey, not to anyone.

No, TJ's admissions office went out of its way to hire fulltime black staff just for recruiting black applicants, had other special recruitment/tutoring programs open only to blacks/Hispanics, URMs received an unofficial bump during the old admissions process etc. Asians were disadvantaged and FCPS did everything it could think of to increase the no. of black students for the past 25 years!

They finally so the opportunity to go nuclear during the 2020 covid lockdown and the GF incident to step all over Asians in their blind pandering.

What you've cited here is an opinion article written by an individual who has leveraged this story to elevate her national profile and gain speaking appearances on countless conservative outlets, and the chief counsel for the legal entity that is representing them in this crusade.

F, see me after class.

It is interesting in this country that non-protected class discrimination isn't typically illegal.
People get so heated when race or sex are even mentioned but barely care when there are all kinds of other discrimination and prejudice around them. A lot of unfair or unequal treatment isn't a violation of the law.
