[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Daeshanda is going to be discriminated against by white people all her life because of her name. Some of them will see her name, go straight to their stereotype and trash her resume without giving her education or qualifications any consideration. Nobody is ever going to do that to Billy.

Give me a break. Daeshanda has the almost-sure option of a federal job where hiring is clearly based on racial preferences.[/quote]

And they make up how many jobs? What % of all jobs?

DP: you are exaggerating a bit too much...if the name Daeshanda is such an obstacle, she could just change it. Millions of immigrants do it, and they do very well despite the even more pronounced biases and obstacles.[/quote]
Yeah. My uncle had to change his name because companies weren't hiring Jews. (It was well known. This was post-WWII and antisemitism was rampant in this country.) He went on to become the VP of his company. [/quote]

Yup.

Race-obsessed Americans are quite a group, always looking for excuse after excuse instead of stating the obvious: current admission policies are racist.[/quote]
