  1. I’m wondering why we need another law concerning civil rights or racial equity or whatever we wanna call it. We already have many laws on the books and I wonder why they are not being enforced? We have the…
    Anti-discrimination act of 1945
    The civil rights act of 1957
    The civil rights act of 1964
    The fair housing act
    Title VII, civil rights act
    Age discrimination act of 1967 and 1975
    Equal pay act of 1963
    The Voting Rights Act of 1965
    The civil rights restoration act of 1987
    And on top of all of these other apps we have the fourth, 15th, 19th and 24th amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
    With all of the aforementioned, and I might have missed a few, why do we need any more legislation? Let’s enforce what we already have.

    1. @Rafael Dias I don’t think something like that will ever pass. First of all it would be extremely hard to prove because he would have to compare the education, training, knowledge skills and abilities of the Protected class individual with all other applicants. No two individuals are alike and an easy argument could be made that another individual was selected because they met the qualifications.
      During the previous administration we did have minority employment at a very high level and the WSJ reported that lower and middle income Americans were getting a higher percentage of wage increases then were upper class individuals. Women and minorities were also entering the field of entrepreneurship. All of that came to an end because of the COVID-19 virus that ravage the world.

    2. Even though there not laws, I’ll add diversity training, black history month, black colleges, splc, aclu, blm, racial quotas. It’s not about equality and it never was.

    1. You can’t battle something when you can’t even define it or be honest about what it is and isn’t, none of which few people able to do.

  2. Read through the comments, seems that many do not like racial equity, what would you have rather seen as far as an executive action ?

  3. That’s my President!!! Go Joe! Make us whole again, make everybody whole. Make America home for everybody…. In it Together! 🇺🇸

  4. Good! We’ll start with prisons today. Next week, we will hit the NBA and its long history of systemic racism. By next season, every NBA team _must_ have a racially diverse roster, to include players from Asia, South America, Africa, Australia, Europe, and either one of the Pan-Arab nations or one of the Arctic/Inuit tribes. Anything short of that is _racist_ and _xenophobic_ !!!
