I believe that affirmative action is justified to some extent, however these days it’s more appropriate to provide affirmative action based on socio-economic class more than race. I say this because there are many well privileged minorities these days who are getting affirmative action even though they don’t need it.
The reason Affirmative action came about was to aid minorities in improving their social status, since some earlier social injustices and prejudices hindered them in the past. However, as I will mention, our current notion of “socio-economic class” has led to some distorted perspectives on affirmative action that are counterproductive.
