Odd are that she probably fancied herself a "progressive" or at least a "liberal" until she realized that her fellow liberals were actually going to use their progressive ideals to REMOVE HER PAYCHECK.
Funny how the virtue signaling gets dropped real fast when the ideology means you lose your income and have to face being put out on the sidewalk.
I'm pretty sure that being the face of resistance to affirmative action was not her first choice - but I'm still glad she sued instead of running away in total defeat.
Not a happy ending though. I mean, she had a slam-dunk case in the court and took the money to shut up. That's called "taking the easy way out" or "doing the wrong thing" when you decide to take the money and shut up. Taking this thing to the Supreme Court would have been the right thing to do.
Which kind of supports my theory that she is a typical lukewarm liberal who really has no principles beyond her paycheck.
She would have verbally supported SOME OTHER WHITE else getting axed by affirmative action - if she were asked the question - until it happened to HER.
At that point it was just about the money and only the money/
she wanted to be made whole - she was made more than whole by the settlement - conversely, I assume groups who wanted to see the case go to court could have donated to her, to keep her from taking the settlement and seeing the case through.
she lost her job, she wanted her job back - and to my point, would all the others who wanted to see her go through have ponied up money to help her had she lost at SCOTUS?
It reads he supported the school board sending it to the Supreme Court.
This just put the ball back in play. He could have orchestrated the black organizations to scrape up that money. (Complete Speculation On My Part!!! No proof!).
Translation - a bunch of racists fired a white woman and then paid her not to go to the Supreme Court with the case.
Classic leftism
Need another of these cases in the next year or so.
I wonder where all that money came from?

The bigger story here is that this was the first and only time ever that the government had encountered a Taxman it did not like.
The Beatles liked her so much they wrote a song about her.

Translation — Principles were not worth more than money to this woman.
Took the pay huh? I bet she still votes blue.
Fuck that bitch if she took the money, no morals, just money.

All about bucks, not the principle. Down vote all you want.
She cared only for herself. I doubt she was in the breadline

Again we are doomed, everyone is out for a handout or propped up.
Let's not be like the founders.
accepting a settlement as compensation for wrongdoing is not a handout.
Frankly I am amazed to read that the Clinton administration was trying to fight for her rights back than.
Not sure Clinton was a hero.

Clinton supported the appeal against her
oh, misunderstood. You are right.
World makes sense again. Cilinton's still pure evil, for a bit I thought I stumbled on some kind of gray area there.
I say it sounds pretty accurate. How is it not?
Hence why we lose elections
A person's gots to pay the bills.
Yeah, they likely wouldve made sure she never taught again.
For how many pieces of silver, Judas?
You can always refuse.
She used that money to get a Tasha Yar haircut. Still looks like a sad lay.
