Quite a find yesterday by Michigan Capitol Confidential, which is a publication of the free-market Mackinac Center for Public Policy. In Ferndale, Michigan, which is directly north of Detroit, the contract between the school district and the teachers union contains a clause that gives hiring preference to members of certain groups - mostly ethnic minorities. But the Ferndale school officials and their union have an interesting way of defining a minority, and if you're a Christian, you might want to look elsewhere for a teaching job:
Should there be two (2) or more of these applicants with equal qualifications for the position and one (1) or more of these applicants with equal qualifications is a current employee, the current employee with the greatest seniority shall be assigned. Special consideration shall be given to women and/or minority defined as: Native American, Asian American, Latino, African American and those of the non-Christian faith. However, in all appointments to vacant positions, the Board's decision shall be final.
As you might expect, neither the school superintendent, nor the board president nor the union leader responded to questions from Michigan CapCon reporter Tom Gantert. The language has been in the contract for quite a few years, and it was recently renewed through 2017 - which is in part a move designed to exempt the contract from Michigan's newly established status as a right-to-work state. Why no one ever noticed the language until now - or at least ever thought it was worthy of being reported on - I have no idea.

Do they also segregate drinking fountains and bathrooms the same way?
Who sits where on their buses or in their classrooms?
Fine by me.
They just validated discrimination by race, ethnicity and religion.
Means we can overturn Brown v. Board of Education and go back to Deed Restriction, segregation, and employment at will.
If that ain’t true, folks...then the 14th amendment and all those Warren court decisions are crap.
But not the practice...
Public school? What happened to separation of church and state?
BEEP!
2010’s Christians = 1930’s Joos.
Why would anyone tell a prospective employer their faith?
Of course, if you are clean cut, well dressed white person then you’re probably Christian... and racist too.
The GAME will continue . . . until America is done.
“They just validated discrimination by race, ethnicity and religion. Means we can overturn Brown v. Board of Education and go back to Deed Restriction, segregation, and employment at will.”
The Dems have already brought us back to those days; they have gerrymandered to create Negro districts, and criminalized teachings blacks how to read as well.
You would think a school district nowadays would be trying to recruit, retain, and promote men, both to satisfy the quota counters and, more importantly, to provide more role models and mentors to the boys who are being systematically dis-served by current arrangements.
You mean: "Is it not illegal...?", right?
Regards,
It is illegal to ask about an applicants religion during a job interview.
This makes me ill.
If you want Sundays off you will not be hired in retail and a lot of other businesses.
...but will still be kept in force, just on the Q.T.
Jeepers. Thanks for the ping!
