The outcome of EEOC v. Ruby Tuesday, Inc. resulted in the restaurant chain paying employees Andrew Herrera and Joshua Bell $100,000 and commit to taking steps to prevent future sex discrimination (US EEOC, 2015). Ruby Tuesday sought to prevent future discrimination by providing training to all of its managers on employees under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The company also had to report its training efforts to the EEOC as well as post reminders of this outcome to its restaurants and its online presence through its website. Some were surprised by the gender discrimination taking place towards men instead of men, however, they were not surprised by the outcome of the case (Phillips, 2015). What was most surprising to many was how blatant Ruby Tuesday was in their request for only women to apply for the position made in an internal company posting.

In Fisher v. University of Texas at Austin (“Fisher II”), the United States Supreme Court will decide the constitutionality of the University of Texas’s (“University”) affirmative action policy, the impact of which is being widely debated. Some commentators fear that the Court is poised to end affirmative action altogether, thus causing reduction in the number of minorities who are admitted to universities across the country. Others believe that the Court should use Fisher II to invalidate all race-conscious policies and endorse a color-blind admissions process. Such concerns, and the expectations of those who would like to see affirmative action eliminated, are overstated. A careful analysis of the issues in Fisher II, including the Justices’
There are two routes to addressing racial discrimination under the law, the 14th Amendment of the Constitution and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. These routes both intend to eliminate the threat of racial discrimination, but do so through different means and criteria. The 14th Amendment provides equal protection under the law in order to “prevent official conduct discriminating on the basis of race” (Han, pg. 63), but does not explicitly define discrimination. Claims brought under the 14th amendment apply specifically to public institutions and must include evidence of both malicious intent and the discriminatory effects that resulted partially ‘because of’ this intent (Han, pg. 64). Title VII acts as a supplement to the 14th Amendment by using statutory law to prohibit overt discrimination or business practices with discriminatory effects (Tara, Study Group, 2/13/17).
Stella, I enjoyed reading your post for this week; I found it to be pretty interesting. I did not realize the different factors you have to take into consideration in order to determine if a crime was a “bias” crime. I thought there would be a specific list that would help determine what crimes are bias crimes, however as we learned from this chapter a list like that does not exist. Every crime is different so each must be evaluated individually in order to determine if the crime is a bias or hate crime.
The short poem “Discrimination” by Kenneth Rexroth, features a narrator whose monologue about his disdain of the human race mocks the thought of discrimination against other races. Rexroth uses tone to mock the statements usually made by those who feel superior to other races or groups to illustrate how pompous it sounds. Rexroth uses the line “I don’t mind the human race,” to show that the narrator feels superior to humanity, giving off an overconfident feeling, and making the narrator feel distant from the narrator, and not sympathize with what he says. He also has the narrator claim that he wouldn’t mind if people sat next to him on street cars or ate in the same restaurants, which brings memories of the era of segregation. In addition,
able to recognise and challenge it. Practitioners and children and young people’s organisations generally aim to be inclusive and welcoming to all children and families who wish to use their services, despite this, overt discrimination does sometimes occur, this can be the result of, Individual staff members favouring some children and families or treating others in a less favourable way because of prejudices that they hold
The murder of Oscar Grant was another case of racial profiling. Oscar Grant had been celebrating the New Years with some of his close friends and girlfriend. At 2:00 officers had responded to a report that a fight had broken out on the train. Grant was snatched off a train because police “felt” he was a part of the riot on the train, but he had nothing to do with it. In fact the train conductor said “Grant wasn’t one of the men that had been involved in the fight”.
In term 2, I have learnt many things along the way from SAWI. Invisible discrimination is present worldwide and everyone has faced invisible discrimination before, be it the majority group or much more frequently the minority group. Discrimination is the treatment or making a different judgement against someone based on their group which that person is thought to belong to rather than by their personal achievements. This includes the treating of an individual or group based on their membership in that certain social group in an approach that is much worse than how people are normally treated. Discrimination restricts an individual of a certain group to be unable to have benefits or opportunities as another more majority group.
Racism is a cultural bias pertaining to the belief that there is a distinct human race and that one race is superior to another. Developed by Europeans to justify their enslavement of the ‘Others’, they have maintained racial tendencies and attempts to dehumanize colored people as ‘savage’ and uncivilized to support their inflicted maltreatment of them. Racism is real. Though many strides have been made in efforts to exact the devastation imposed on colored peoples’ dignity and rights to liberty, communal relations remain stained. Just as we live in a world where even visas have varying values, discrimination has become an undeniable reality – hindrances to playful world traveling.
Lookism should be classified as a civil rights issue similar to racism and sexism. Appearance does matter but when it comes down to discriminating someone for his or her look it isn’t something that should be allowed. It is wrong for someone to be discriminated based on the way he or she look or dress. Sometime this could be overlooked in many situations such as workforce, business, school, and any other organization. There should be an end up judgment when it comes toward a person appearance.
Some people argue that the cons of psychometric testing outweigh its pros. In many cases, top-notch applicants are ruled out of a job because psychometrics are used as a default barometer, with all subsequent decisions based on it. One of the biggest problems is that psychometric tests frequently contain biases that work against applicants from different cultural backgrounds, who face language barriers or even just simple anxiety about testing. They might sometimes be the best person for the job, but are automatically eliminated because of the process. Besides, the standard psychometric tests are already well known and easily accessed.
This remark made by the Father of the Nation rightly points out at the concept and need of Equality in the society, equality being the fundamental human right of any human being, which can be at-tained only by removing all caste and class based discriminations in a Country like India wherein certain classes of citizens have been subjected to social, economic and cultural disabilities since time immemorial, owing to the peculiar traditional, historical and social norms prevalents in the society. The Caste system has existed in India for a long time and was the creation of a social practice that later on became a norm of life, with the continuation of inferiority and superiority by reason of ones colour, religion, place of birth, economic
