The Regents of the University of California v. Bakke was the first Supreme Court case dealing with the constitutionality of the policy affirmative action, which gives minorities priority in college admissions and jog applications.
The US never wanted to join World War II so they isolated themselves from everything that was going on and tried to stay neutral (Over time, we sided with the Allies). Mainly, we entered due to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. After the bombing, the US decided to declare war on Japan. Soon after, Nazi Germany's leader declared war on the US and then the US was officially in the war.
So, all in all, it was the bombing of Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941.
