Unit 6 Announcement – Diversity Legislation_x000D_
Legislation serves a purpose to set precedence as the societal paradigm shifts. An issue can also be over-legislated to a point of obstruction or hindrance, limiting possibilities to the protected group and others as a standout with special needs. Balance between legislative needs and social norms that are accepted is a fine line. Consideration of how much legislative intervention is required becomes increasingly challenging as people, groups, and communities of people will strive for greater influence or impact. Where there are no advocates or the dialogue becomes accusatory, slanderous, or judgmental, the matter becomes an issue of the people, of the community, and of societal perspective._x000D_
