Chapter 5

1. The issue of race - does the government do too little or too much to reduce the instances of racial discrimination?  Why or how so?

I think that the government has done so much to help the minorities have a fair chance in everyday life. From in the beginning, when a African American didn't have any rights, to now having a president in the white house having African decent has come a long way. There has been all most so much of a fair chance that it had some of a effect of majority discrimination with affirmative action.

2. The issue of gender - same question as #1.

Women's rights have developed through the years, not having much of any rights to having all kinds of laws and acts to help protect their rights. Still today there is some differences in the pay wages and corporate latter when it comes to gender.

3. The issue of sexual orientation - same question as #1 and #2
Sexual Orientation has been on the back burner for rights as race, and sex has been the issues for so many years. Now that most ends of those subjects have been corrected there is more thought about the freedoms with sexual orientation.  Some sexual orientation rights have been developed, but there are still battles over marriage, and other rights that come with that.
