Affirmative Action or Class Solidarity?
http://newdemocracyworld.org/old/affirm.htmhttp://www.connexions.org/CxArchive/NewDem/affirm.htm Publisher: New Democracy Year Published: 2007 Resource Type: Article Cx Number: CX11092 Affirmative action continues the game of pitting people against each other. It distorts what people mean by racial justice, which would require decent jobs for all. Instead the government promotes unemployment while it encourages competition among racial groups. There is only one "group" that the powerful do not want us to identify with-the working class. The ruling elite know that they can keep groups based on race or gender fighting each other forever. The elite cannot control a united working class. Subject Headings |
