Re: A few thoughts on rascism / affirmative action

If I were the employer, though, and I knew I could get away with it, I would certainly hire the white guy, even if the black is slightly more qualified, and it would be for pure profit-related reasons, not anything personal against the black. The reason is that there is more trust in a homogenous environment and that fosters efficiency. Few will think the black guy will try to steal or do something drastic, but many times they won't understand where he is coming from and as an employer I won't feel like financing a Bridging Cultures 101 training course if I don't have to.
