About the Author
Jason L. Riley is a distinguished journalist, commentator, and author renowned for his incisive analysis of race, economics, and public policy in America. A senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute and a columnist for The Wall Street Journal, Riley brings decades of experience from his tenure at the Journal, where he covers topics ranging from civil rights to urban development with a focus on empirical evidence and individual agency. His work challenges conventional narratives, advocating for policies that promote self-reliance and opportunity over dependency. In 'The Affirmative Action Myth: Why Blacks Don't Need Racial Preferences to Succeed,' Riley dismantles the reliance on racial preferences, arguing persuasively that economic and educational progress for African Americans stems from merit and hard work rather than government mandates. Through his writings, Riley continues to influence national debates on equality and achievement.
