struggles to add diversity into schools. Some understand we must have a moral obligation to our future generations to be diverse and equal so that everyone is given an equal opportunity which is where the affirmative action comes in.

Copulation, formation, and gestation, are the stages needed to create an entirely original individual. Inside the mother’s womb, the fetus is holds boundless potential. All men are created equal, but not all men are treated equal.

views, stances, opinions and even laws on affirmative action. In 1961, “affirmative action” was first said in an Executive Order signed by President John F. Kennedy.

Sadly in the world today there are many types of discrimination, prejudice, and disparities that hinder society and keep it divided. Three very prevalent and troublesome inequalities are that of class, gender, and race. These prejudices that we still allow to be a part of our societies in this day and age tear us apart, weaken communities and distract us from more important issues that threaten everyone. In Joseph Kahn and Jim Yardley’s, “Amid China’s Boom, No Helping Hand for Qingming,” is…
