Karen and Brittany explore the impact of the June 2023 Affirmative Action ruling and the lawsuit against Fearless Fund, a VC firm dedicated to providing pre-seed, seed-level, and Series-A financing to women of color. They dissect the argument of the lawsuit's leader, who believes race should not be a factor in decision-making, and highlight how this legal shift ignores systemic inequalities and targets vulnerable groups. They also discuss the impact on organizations, the importance of leadership's resilience, and how to use the lawsuit as a marketing opportunity.
