Thomas Sowell has long challenged the idea of judging people based on race rather than individual merit. The debate over affirmative action ultimately comes down to a basic question: Should the government treat people differently because of their race? Sowell’s work forces people to look beyond good intentions and... show more

If affirmative action was going to work, it would have done so by now. So, we should either get rid of it because it has done as much good as it can or because it was never going to work anyway.

Charlie Kirk takes on the DEI debate at the University of Tennessee, challenging whether these policies actually bring America closer to equality—or push us further away from a merit-based society. Charlie argues that people should be judged by their character, ability, and individual merit, not divided into categories based on race or identity. When the student pushes back, Charlie presses the bigger question: if equality is the goal, why should institutions treat people differently based on their group identity? It’s a debate at the heart of America’s culture war: equal opportunity or DEI—which approach actually brings people together? Where do you stand?

Thomas Sowell has described the Communist Manifesto as political propaganda rather than an objective analysis of society. His broader criticism of Marxism is that political ideas should be judged by their real-world results, not simply by how appealing their promises sound. Sowell always pushes people to look past the rhetoric and examine the consequences.

Thomas Sowell has long argued that good intentions don’t guarantee good outcomes. California is a perfect example of why housing policy, regulations and incentives matter. When government makes it harder and more expensive to build homes, the people with the fewest resources often suffer the most. Sowell would tell us to look at the results, not just the intentions.

Thomas Sowell explains why he believes promoting “equity” can produce the opposite of what it intends. His argument is that equal outcomes often require treating people differently, rather than judging people by the same standards. For Sowell, the real question isn’t whether the goal sounds compassionate, it’s whether the policy actually improves people’s lives.

Thomas Sowell has spent decades warning about what happens when people put ideology ahead of the institutions, values and freedoms that made America successful. “People who hate America are running America. Sowell’s broader lesson is worth remembering: don’t just listen to what people say they want to achieve. Look at the ideas they believe in and the consequences those ideas produce.

A police anti-racism document should be withdrawn from use because it encourages police to treat people differently based on the colour of their skin, says shadow home secretary Chris Philp. He's speaking in response to a government statement on the murder of Henry Nowak.

Leavitt also made it crystal clear to reporters that the federal government will hire based on competence, merit, and skill—not DEI. “People should not be hired based on their disabilities, based on their skin color, their gender, their race. “None of that matters. What matters to this president and this administration is how well you can do your job. And the American people agree with that sentiment. So it’s about competence, skill, and merit. And so the president is focused on ensuring that the most competent individuals, the best and the brightest in this country, are in positions in this federal government, especially when it comes to public safety. Can’t overemphasize the importance of those jobs.”

Thomas Sowell: "The human race began in poverty, so there is no mysterious explanation as to why some people are poor. The question is, why have some people gotten prosperous, and in particular why have some gotten prosperous to a greater degree than others."

Closing the Gap - here we go again. Another year of broken promises, aboriginal people being failed and the country being divided on race. 30 years ago I was elected on the ideal of treating every Australian equally according to need - I was shouted down then too. Decades later, where has treating people differently on the basis of race gotten us? Billions of dollars poured into a corrupt industry which has no interest in taking care of people, residents in remote communities facing third world conditions and a country more divided on race than ever. Australia’s done it your way Lydia Thorpe, this race-based division, for 30 years and look where its gotten us. It’s time to try the One Nation way. No special treatment, no race based laws. Just equality for all Australians and a helping hand based on need - not race, religion or colour.

They celebrate abortions up to the moment of birth… and call it progress. Victor Davis Hanson once asked Thomas Sowell who causes most of the damage in America. Sowell’s answer was clear: It’s not the poor or the uneducated. It’s highly educated people who are not empirical — people more concerned with being seen as compassionate than with the actual consequences of their ideas. That mindset is on full display here. When the “anointed” decide that a fully formed child has no value until it leaves the womb, they’re not showing compassion. They’re showing the same moral vanity Sowell spent a lifetime exposing.

Through policies like the police's "race action plan", our institutions now divide people into groups to decide what kind of treatment they should get. This is poisonous. Britain has been so successful because we've judged individuals based on their character and actions.

Thomas Sowell takes a fascinating look at why Americans and the French can approach the world so differently. It’s not simply about intelligence, It’s about culture, history, institutions, incentives and the ideas people grow up with. Sowell’s work reminds us that the way people think is often shaped by the environment around them. A thought-provoking look at the differences between America and France.

A fear of appearing racist should never take priority over a duty to keep people safe. And pushes for diversity should never take priority over hiring people on the basis of individual merit. As I wrote for ConservativeHome, it's time to scrap the Public Sector Equality Duty 👇

Thomas Sowell: ”Slavery was much bigger and involved infinitely more people than people have realized. It was not confined by race. It was not defined or created by race. It existed for thousands of years. A history professor once had a student come up to him and ask, ‘When did slavery begin?’ The real question is: when did freedom begin? Cause slavery existed as long as we have any records. From archaeological findings, we know that people were enslaving other people before they could read or write. It has always existed and has existed all over the world. The number of White people enslaved by pirates in North Africa was greater than the number of Africans brought to the United States. And yet, that’s not even mentioned.”
