“This paper, drawn from a book in progress, summarizes evidence of a civic
achievement gap between non-white, poor, and/or immigrant youth, on the one hand, and white, wealthier, and/or native-born youth, on the other. Young people (and adults) in the former group demonstrate consistently lower levels of civic and political knowledge, skills, positive attitudes, and participation, as compared to their wealthier and white counterparts. As a result, they face serious political disadvantages.”

We’re in the age of reverse discrimination. I really wish the government would stop butting in and giving away handouts. That doesn’t actually help in most situations. It just becomes a dependency and many people never get out of their rut.
Like many others I voted for president Obama. I hope the gap will eventually be narrowed and that discrimination will one day no longer be an issue on our minds.
Discrimination is a problem ever since, it is a story that needed to come in to an end. To stop this, every one should know how to treat each of us fairly.
I agree with this article. Discrimination should be stop!
I would say that discrimination is awful thing folks. Lets stop it.
There is a long time battle against discrimination, And it should be stop now, I remember an incident happen to one university(not to mention the name and place) there is a group of student mock and fight a young Asian student, without any reason, the investigator found out they beat the student because he is an Asian. Let us remember that all men are equally created by the all mighty there is no black or white or Asian, African etc. there is no superiority among men, only god is superior to us.

The Medal for Outstanding Civic Service or Medaljen for Borgerdåd is the second highest ranked Norwegian medal. In spring 2004 the medal ceased to be awarded. The medal was first established by Royal Resolution April 10, 1819 and later altered by Royal Resolution April 13, 1844. It was awarded by the cabinet meeting presided over by the King after a recommendation by the Norwegian Ministry of Justice.
It is divided into two grades: the first class is in gold and the second class is in silver.
Recipients of the Medal for Outstanding Civic Achievement are ranked 33 in the Norwegian order of precedence, after recipients of the War Cross with sword and before holders of the Grand Cross of the Royal Norwegian Order of St. Olav.
Yes, I agree with you. Consider taking more actions to overcome it. Then you will find the best solution.
Just wait until the time is more stable. There will be more room for adjustment later.
Discrimination has always been a problem and I think it’s about time Obama did something about this because he’s been discriminated as well by fellow politicians but I see him as a very capable leader.
Good luck. They still have to fix some things, but that will be alright with the level of cooperation they show.
