How has the Equal Rights Amendment affected women's civil rights?
 
  a. It has ensured that men and women are treated equally in the workplace.
 b. It has ensured that the courts evaluate gender discrimination using the strict scrutiny test.
  c. It solidified the civil rights women had earlier won through legal victories.
  d. It has had little effect because it was not adopted.

Question 2

Why have some politicians and civil rights leaders begun to focus attention on the concept of equality between groups rather than equality of individual opportunity?
 
  a. because there are large disparities in wealth and advantage between groups that lead to social and economic disadvantages for most of the individuals within certain groups
  b. because there is far more power in group protest against discrimination and inequality than in individual actions
 c. because the courts are more willing to review accusations of discrimination when they are submitted by large groups of people than when they come from a single person
  d. because there are large disparities in political access between groups, and so people from those groups with access need to reach across the aisle and help people from the others
