Allan Bakke had been the subject of a case involving <u>“reverse discrimination” </u>during the carter administration.  

In 1978 Allan Bakke applied for admission at medical school and it was declined twice by the University of California, so Bakke filed a suit against the University arguing that he had better scores than the minority groups that were granted access.

At that time, the university had reserved a quota of 16%, as part of affirmative action program, to minority groups. Affirmative action program was designed to provide better educational and employment opportunities to those groups.

In this legal case, Bakke claimed that the use of quota based on race was unfair “reverse discrimination” as according the Civil Right Act, equal protection should be given to all citizens. The Supreme Court, in a highly controversial case, ordered that the university should admit Bakke and declared that affirmative action was constitutional but could not be used in cases of race quotas.

Tpy6a [65]
As a general impact over all of Africa, foreign invaders, typically from Europe, initially seemed to have a positive impact in the sense that they introduced public schools and basic hygiene, but the also had many negative impacts because eventually, in the 18-1900's when many African nations became independent countries and forced the Europeans out, they were left with little government, political, or economic skills which is why many of the African nations of the modern day are still considered developing countries.
