In June 2023, the 6-3 conservative majority on the Supreme Court struck down affirmative action in higher education in the landmark Students for Fair Admissions (SFFA) v. HARVARD and SFFA v. UNC cases, dealing a crushing blow to progressives who had labored to address racism in America through race-conscious policies.

Combining interviews, news archives, and verité footage with dynamic animated sequences that bring the closed-door court hearings to life, ADMISSIONS GRANTED takes an honest and thoughtful look at the complexity of the affirmative action debate, the divisions within the Asian American community, and our nation’s increasing polarization on matters of race, equity, and inclusion.

This program is co-sponsored by Visual Communications, UCLA Asian American Studies Center and Department, and the UCLA Asia Pacific Center.
