Affirmative Action Reverse Discrimination?

NO. The group who's benefited the most from AA is WHITE WOMEN. "FACT: Affirmative action benefits a broad range of people and communities that continue to face discrimination in this country, including Latino, Native, Arab, Asian and African Americans.

The primary beneficiaries, however, have been white women." Affirmative Action is definitely still necessary. Most of the "power's that be" are still white men.

It is still necessary. Statistics show that even with Affirmative Action, minorities and women still earn less than their white male peers for the same position. That in itself shows that certain people are still receiving preferential treatment.

I'd like to make a long informative post, but i'm too tired -- so i'll copy and paste. Here is the law: "federal regulations explicitly prohibit affirmative action programs in which unqualified or unneeded employees are hired (Bureau of National Affairs, 1979)." White men have their own type of Affirmative Action - when people get into Ivy League schools because of legacies, that's a type of Affirmative Action too.

"Researchers with access to closely guarded college admissions data have found that, on the whole, about 15 percent of freshmen enrolled at America’s highly selective colleges are white teens who failed to meet their institutions’ minimum admissions standards.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
