Can affirmative action in education be justified? If so, what form should it take (should it be race-based, class-based, or based on something else)? (Recall Andrew Lams claim that affirmative action should be based on socio-economic disadvantage rather than race alone (Lam). And recall Elizabeth Andersons view, which seems to be that race and class, and other characteristics as well, should be taken into consideration in college admissions. Think about what weve been calling wholistic review in our discussions.) If affirmative action of some kind can be justified, what is the justification? If it cannot be justified, explain why. Make use of at least three of the sources we discussed in class. Be sure to consider and respond to an objection to the view you defend.sourceslinks to readings1. https://learn-us-east-1-prod-fleet01-xythos.s3.amazonaws.com/5bd85a749196f/152528?response-cache-control=private%2C%20max-age%3D21600&response-content-disposition=inline%3B%20filename%2A%3DUTF-8%27%27Anderson%2520–%2520Fair%2520Opportunity%2520in%2520Education.pdf&response-content-type=application%2Fpdf&X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Date=20201108T210000Z&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Expires=21600&X-Amz-Credential=AKIAZH6WM4PL5SJBSTP6%2F20201108%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Signature=b731c5bd08554ce842949c87dee96d4252b46a67245f14b9b08024bbafad08952. https://learn-us-east-1-prod-fleet01-xythos.s3.amazonaws.com/5bd85a749196f/4604798?response-cache-control=private%2C%20max-age%3D21600&response-content-disposition=inline%3B%20filename%2A%3DUTF-8%27%27Deparle%2520–%2520For%2520Poor%2520Leap%2520to%2520College%2520Often%2520Ends%2520in%2520a%2520Hard%2520Fall%25281%2529.pdf&response-content-type=application%2Fpdf&X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Date=20201108T210000Z&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Expires=21600&X-Amz-Credential=AKIAZH6WM4PL5SJBSTP6%2F20201108%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Signature=0d6bbb29d34ad0ed6ef8825e0c48b10f562935a47270cd310871ebc0428b98db3. https://learn-us-east-1-prod-fleet01-xythos.s3.amazonaws.com/5bd85a749196f/4604790?response-cache-control=private%2C%20max-age%3D21600&response-content-disposition=inline%3B%20filename%2A%3DUTF-8%27%27Lam%2520–%2520White%2520Students%2527%2520Unfair%2520Advantage.pdf&response-content-type=application%2Fpdf&X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Date=20201108T210000Z&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Expires=21600&X-Amz-Credential=AKIAZH6WM4PL5SJBSTP6%2F20201108%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Signature=0b28b92b7a765ca97aee3de55ad23897371c0349af11cf8fd0e986678c41a659
