Structural racism writ large.

Unless you believe no black woman has ever been qualified for the job.

pete, tell me which part of this you don’t understand…

i believe that for a job that important, you go with THE most qualified candidate. regardless of skin color or presence of a wee wee.

i’m sure there are black women who’d do fine. but if there’s a white man who’d do better, i want him.

if the best candidate is a native american, non binary, non cis, asexual or pan sexual, pick he/she/they/them.

but i see zero value in passing over the best candidate, for the sake of appearances

you disagree. fine. but don’t claim
my view is racist. i’m ignoring race, you’re the one denying opportunity for race. that’s the definition of racism.
