Clarence Thomas

A new biography of Justice Clarence Thomas written by Kevin Merida and Michael Fletcher ("Supreme Discomfort") holds some lessons for ongoing debate in India regarding reservation for OBC without excluding the Creamy Layer.Clarence Thomas is against affirmative action because,in his view, only the lighter skinned blacks have benefitted crowding out the darker ones.Isn't this exactly what is happening in India?
