Originally appeared on spirituality.com

As I write, the government of my country, France, is announcing new strategies after the riots that took place in November 2005.

For instance, resumes should not outwardly display the job applicant's name, in order to prevent discrimination against immigrants. Top industries have agreed on a plan for hiring more people whose parents are immigrants. The media have been asked to show more diversity in their programs.
