Tax Exemptions For Racially Discriminatory Private Schools: A Legislative Proposal, Neal Devins Sep 2019

Tax Exemptions For Racially Discriminatory Private Schools: A Legislative Proposal, Neal Devins

Neal E. Devins

In Revenue Ruling 71-447, the Internal Revenue Service expressly denied tax exemptions to racially discriminatory private schools. The Reagan administration recently challenged the existence of a defined policy prohibiting tax exemptions to these schools as well as the propriety of the IRS's involvement in regulating social policy. President Reagan has called upon Congress to settle the issue by enacting affirmative legislation. Congress, however, has maintained that long-established federal policy supports Revenue Ruling 71-447 and has refused to enact affirmative legislation. In this Article, Mr. Devins examines the conflict between the executive, judicial, and legislative branches of government and argues that …

Making Sense Of Desegregation And Affirmative Action, William W. Van Alstyne Jan 1979

Making Sense Of Desegregation And Affirmative Action, William W. Van Alstyne

Faculty Publications

This review discusses J. Harvie Wilkinson's From Brown to Bakke and its companion work, Counting by Race: Equality from the Founding Fathers to Bakke and Weber written by Terry Eastland and William J. Bennett. Wilkinson's work is found to maintain a narrow focus on its specific subject of school desegregation and the Supreme Court, but it suffers from over-exaggeration and an abundance of adornment in his writing style. Counting is a provocative piece that asserts the position that the Constitution is still not color-blind, despite what many have proposed, and makes an authoritative argument for such a claim.
