Certain groups of people in a conforming society aimlessly prefer to stay within these societal confinements. Although there are groups of people who are better off in a compliant society that minimizes pain and maximizes pleasure, the dangers of a conforming society ultimately lead to people to blindly submitting…
Minorities in the workplace are still slender in today’s society. When I refer to minorities I am speaking on the Blacks and Hispanics. Though Black and Hispanics earn their degrees from top universities in computer science and computer engineering graduates at twice the rate that leading technology companies hire them, they still aren’t getting the jobs they deserve.

In the social construct of reality, how we were raised, and…
on an affirmative action plan adopted by an university. Grutter deals with the role the state plays in including a minority group into a larger part of the schools student body for educational benefits; this is the basis of affirmative action. The problem some people say of this is that under-favored minority groups are occasionally felt like they are pushed aside for these other group members. The challenge to affirmative action brought…
the world. Freedom is something that America has that differs from many other countries. Our freedom is limited to an extent, and kept close to lawful orders. Freedom has been the one idea or act that has led to the death or injury of one of many minorities’. Protesting and exercising a basic right such as, freedom to assemble, have been the escalation of police brutality.
