March Public Forum Debate

February 1st, 2010

Resolved: Affirmative action to promote equal opportunity in the United States is justified.

Description of Affirmative Action
Origins of Affirmative Action

This is a pretty interesting choice considering affirmative actions hasn’t exactly been a hot topic in the news. Then again, neither are a lot of NFL Public Forum debate topics.

I imagine the idea surrounding the topic was to indirectly bring up the ‘race’ debate about whether or not we are a post-racial country since the election of Obama.
