Here is my discussion board assignment. This is ethics class. The information and instruction are attach below.
In this assignment, you will participate in a discussion with your classmates about inequality and discrimination.
When responding to the discussion questions,
be sure to reference course materials to support your conclusions and assertions and
cite your sources consistent with APA convention. Please do the same when responding to colleagues' posts. By doing so, you not
only make a stronger case, but support your own learning.
You will be evaluated on how well you support your claims.
*
Bald opinions are of little relative value.
Instructions

Review this unit’s required readings.
2.
Post your answers to the following questions:
In what areas, if any, is inequality and discrimination significant in contemporary culture? What results of inequality
and discrimination have you seen in your own life? What actions, based on the principles discussed in this course,
would you suggest taking to combat these problems?
How might you support or on what basis might one support the idea that in some cases, people should be treated
differently based on their race, gender, sexual orientation, or any other criterion that has been a target for discrimination
in the past? What situations have you encountered in which such treatment might be the best practice? Explain.
