Sagot :

Affirmative action was designed for diversity especially in dominate white colleges, universities and work force.
I believe the answer is: A.diversity

Compared to the ethnic majority, the minorities relatively had low economic power and higher crime rate.
This prevented the minorities from preparing food enough education, nutrition, and social skills to compete and succeeded in mainstream careers. Because of this, Affirmative action was created to give the ethnic minorities higher chance of success.
