Real Evidence of Discrimination
This is the most interesting evidence I have seen lately that discrimination is still alive. [CNN article on discrimination delisted. Abstract: A study found that job applicants with traditionally 'black' sounding names were less likely to get an interview than job applicants with 'white' sounding names. Otherwise, the submitted resumes were identical. -ed.] I don't know if there is any lesson to be learned, except maybe that I am less likely than ever to name my kids "Latisha" or "Beon."
