Meet Calvin Yang, Destroyer Of Affirmative Action
Calvin Yang is now the public face of the Supreme Court’s affirmative action ban, which was decided in Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard (2023). A wealthy Canadian-Chinese “third culture kid” who spent much of his life globetrotting, Calvin Yang went to high school in the Dwight School of New York City before applying to, and getting rejected from, Harvard University. In this video, the poet, critic, and novelist Alex Sheremet dissects Calvin Yang’s public claims, his anti-affirmative action strategy, and determines once and for all whether Yang “deserved” admission into Harvard.
