Although quotas are currently employed to benefit some minority groups. for many decades quotas were used to bar blacks and other minority groups. including Jews. from important economic. social. and cultural opportunities. Jews remember the many inequities perpetrated against them through the use of quotas. and reject quotas reinstitution for fear that quotas may once again be employed to unfairly limit opportunities. Many have interpreted Jewish opposition to quota systems as indicative of a division in the traditional blackJewish alliance for civil rights. The threat that the reverse discrimination controversy poses to blackJewish relations gained symbolic significance when the Supreme Court heard DeFunis against Odegaard. In that case.
