Tom Woods and Vivek Ramaswamy on Affirmative Action


Thank you to Tom Woods.  Check out his show notes.  

Lyndon Johnson's Executive Order 11246 created affirmative action in the private sector.

On September 24, 1965, more than two years after the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his “I Have A Dream” speech on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial and more than a year after the Civil Rights Act of 1964 became the law of the land, the Nation took a historic step towards equal employment opportunity when President Lyndon Johnson issued Executive Order 11246.
