anti-discrimination statutes
The last half of the 20th century saw development of the
legal concepts that we know as Title VII, ADEA, ADA, Equal Pay Act, Civil
Rights Act of 1991, EEO, Affirmative Action, and sexual harassment. The last
half of the century also saw court decisions that recognized the rights of
those who were adversely affected by the implementation of the
anti-discrimination statutes using the legal concept of “reverse
discrimination”.
Discuss what direction you believe anti-discrimination
statutes will take in the 21st century. Should they be repealed? Have they
served their purpose?
