Just check the box and go to a hairdresser on MLK and you won't be found out for years.

This is a private foundation giving away money/’jobs’ to whoever they want. This is not discrimination, it is selection: private groups should be allowed to associate as they please (think Augusta National Golf Club memberships) and spend money as they please.
This is not a Government thing. If you believe that bakeries should be allowed to refuse a sale to somebody based on religious preference, then the Getty Foundation should be allowed to give money based on their liberal preferences.
Sorry for the woman, but that’s life.

In LA being white is “under-represented” and a “minority”.
To: alancarp
(To clarify - if there is actual employment involved, then that changes things due to EEOE regs... but somebody smarter than me will have to determine whether an ‘internship’ means a ‘job’.)

My bank has only black and brown females behind the counter and behind the customer service desks. Every retail outlet has 95% female, and increasingly non-white. Pretty much the same around where we live.
Even more so in the government offices.
Going to the stores much of the time is something like being in Little Haiti or some Mexican border town.
And now the muslims are starting to show up in noticeable greater numbers.
We have just given up on many of our old favorite dining places because we are vastly outnumbered and some of the staff doesn't hide their negative attitudes toward whites very well.

Should they be given 501(c)(3) status and be sued like the baker?

How about today's TV commercials? The only whites ever shown are are all portrayed as stupid, bumbling idiots.

I don’t agree with either lawsuit. Not keen on any 503(c) organization, really, bona fide churches notwithstanding.

The old Bell System is the only company I know that had affirmative action for alcoholics. If you drank like a fish, you got promoted and kept your job pretty much no matter what.

Yes. Successful are being denied what is rightfully theirs in favor of people who don’t meet the minimum standards. All because the left truly believes in “white privilege.”

No problemo. Just tell them that you identify as ______ (fill in the blank).

The government is forcing Christian businesses to toe the line. It should apply equally here.

Maybe on my next job, I’m going to check “African-American”. My ancestry is African, and I have entire libraries of scientific evidence to support this.

Government Jobs are wayyyyyy over represented by black females. Probably 40% or more.

If a man can identify as a woman, why not a white as African American?
