Discrimination

By David M. Haugen

Editors David M. Haugen and Susan Musser have compiled essays that debate the real and perceived teen rights related to discrimination based on race, gender, and sexual orientation. The impact of Brown v. Board of Education is examined, along with issues that have arisen in recent years including affirmative action and the racial quota systems that some universities currently employ. The growing issue of gender-based discrimination in the military is discussed, along with the continuing fight for equal rights for the L.G.B.T.Q. community.
