If a community is continuously facing discrimination, how will rights be most useful?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: They will provide a basis for legal relief and equal treatment
Correct answer: B. Rights turn the idea of equal treatment into a claim that citizens can make against discrimination. A community can identify the unfair action, refer to the promise of equality and justice, approach an appropriate authority or court, and seek lawful relief. Rights therefore provide both a standard for judging conduct and a means of challenging violations. A is wrong because rights oppose discrimination rather than normalize it. C is wrong because discrimination cannot itself remove a community’s citizenship. D is wrong because courts and other institutions can help enforce rights. The key distinction is between a wish and an enforceable claim: rights make equality a protected claim. Memory cue: discrimination is answered by equality plus remedy.
