The Miner's Canary

Guinier argued that attention to exclusions based on race had the potential to result in broad social uplift. In The Miner's Canary: Enlisting Race, Resisting Power, Transforming Democracy (Harvard University Press, 2002), Guinier and co-author Gerald Torres used the analogy of racial minorities as the canary in the coal mine, alerting others to risks to themselves, to argue for “reforms based on initiatives that are begun by minority groups but move beyond racial issues because they address the needs of other disadvantaged groups”, as a New York Times review described it. Torres and Guinier cited for example the way even Hopwood v. Texas, an anti-affirmative action lawsuit, ultimately inspired reform that enlarged college access for all Texas students, based on the research of minority activists who learned that only a handful of high schools enjoyed the majority of admissions to the state’s top colleges. The Times review concluded, “The goal of reaching such truly evenhanded solutions is what this book generously holds out.”
