Does high-stakes testing contribute to, or detract from, the development of the skills and attitudes for citizenship in a democratic society? Explain.

Thus, there is no need for continued enforcement of the race laws or programs such as affirmative action. Do you agree with this view of racial inequality in America? Why or why not?
