I want to know the answer to the following question:
Affirmative action does not only attempt to remove disadvantages, but also to ensure what about the number of people in a field?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Affirmative action in the United States tends to focus on issues such as education and employment, specifically granting special consideration to racial minorities, Native Americans, and women who have been historically excluded groups in America.". Is that enough to answer the question?
