The answer is D. At
the time, most of the opportunities as well as rights go to white male
Americans. At the time handicapped
people, women and minorities enjoyed very little opportunities or rights. The handicapped could gain access to certain
places because of their disabilities.
Women were often relegated to household chores and there were very few
job opportunities for them. Minority
groups suchs African Americans, Hispanics and other non-whites were not given
the same opportunities as white men.
Affirmative Action came about to ensure that everyone not just white
American men will be guaranteed equal opportunities in work, education and will
be given the same amount of pay and benefits.
It was aimed to promote diversity knowing that everyone who is willing
to work will be able to attain that American dream.
