Honors forum topic

In Honors Forum, we are starting to discuss social stratification, immigration, and alienation in France. I personally have no idea what things are like in France, but I have heard that there are divisions even within the political parities. If this is true, then it is evident that changes are necessary to ensure peace for the future. I believe that the French need to monitor their immigration, but not to the point of excluding everyone from their country. The people of France seem to have a severe generation gap. The French guy in our class said that many of the riots were primarily composed of younger people. France therefore needs to find a way to build a bridge between these generations. Hopefully, these issues will be brought into a better light throughout the discussions. So far, I’m not much of an expert on the topic, but I'm ready to learn more.
