- Title
Latino Inter-Ethnic Employment Discrimination and the "Diversity" Defense.
- Authors
Hernández, Tanya Katerí
- Abstract
The article discusses the implications of increased diversity for the operation of employment discrimination law in the U.S. According to the author, non-White racial hierarchies appear opaque to decision makers and other legal actors, who find it difficult to recognize the indicators of discrimination. In addition, agents of discrimination are perceived as uniformly White-Anglos and all incidents are envisioned as having a White-versus-non-White dynamic. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has failed to gather any data regarding the race of those individuals who are agents of discrimination and racial harassment in the workplace.
