Wasn't the SCOTUS decision based on a lawsuit asserting that whites and Asians (odd that you omitted Asians) were being treated unfairly?  Based on the results of that case it is legally factual that whites and Asians were being treated unfairly.

Yes, after the first run at AA with a white person failed,

the anti-AA lobby shifted to the Asian angle, led by an RW lobbyist coopting an Asian group. 

It is not "factually legal" that whites and Asians were being treated unfairly. 

You are confusing judgments of value and fact there. 

What happened was that the argument fairness should be based on expanded opportunity and the value of diversity

was rejected by the argument that that expansion and value were not fair.

This was an application of ethical standards, different definitions of common good.
