Edward Blum is at it again: Black Females now targeted

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/man-behind-us-supreme-courts-affirmative-action-decision-sues-vc-fund-supporting-blackwomenowned-businesses/ar-AA1eKH1T?ocid=sapphireappshare

Summary: Edward Blum, the mastermind behind the latest SCOTUS affirmative action decision through his non profit American Alliance for Equal Rights, is suing the Fearless Fund, a venture capital firm to help Black females financially with establishing small businesses. The claim that about 60 White and Asian females were disqualified from participating in the program because of their race.

This is troubling. Blacks generally get little to no venture capital support in mainstream America. So at the point where they try to help their own, this fool comes along.

So now we can't look out for our own?

If he's allowed to WIN this suit against a private venture:

UNCF
NAACP
The Links
Bachelor's and Benedict
The Boule

Watch SCOTUS make them illegal.

They are now trying to erase our elite.

First, we were never accepted or allowed in their communities, so we formed our own. And now they are griping because they aren’t accepted?

I hope folks are paying attention to this, because a legal win will have serious implications to POC based institutions.
