Affirmative Action? Oui!

At long last, France takes a page from America in order to manage
diversity-and bring minorities into elite schools

April 12 issue - The young people of Vaulx-en-Velin once famously
burned cars and threw stones at French police. That was 15 years ago,
but for teenagers in this poor and largely immigrant suburb the future
still offers little beside unemployment and crime. When your name is
Mohammed and your skin is dark, a high-school diploma and a French
passport mean little. Yet this year, for the first time, the town's
high-school graduates have a real opportunity to join the French
elite—thanks to a social import from America known as "affirmative
action."
