AFFIRMATIVE ACTION
A policy wherein an individual's nationality, sex, race, or color are given consideration by the government or business to provide additional opportunities to the underrepresented sector of the society. The affirmative action is directed to lift up the population of people from particular groups within institutions, businesses, and other parts of the society in which they had a little representation in the past. Most of the time, it is considered as a way to oppose the historical discrimination against a specific group.
