Aren’t most federal employees black? At least a far higher percentage than what they represent in the country.

So. My first response to this ‘executive’ would be to ask him/her the difference between the meanings of ‘unconscious’ and ‘subconscious’.

...told his employees to probe their own “unconscious bias”...

LOL!
Soon they'll get out the hypnotists to find out what everyone really thinks ... And if they aren't thinking right - then it is off for a lobotomy (unless you are a member of the Government Leadership royalty council)

Their appearance is irrelevant. Only certain questions matter:

How well do they do their jobs?
Do they contribute to a harmonious working environment?

Unless they belong to AFSCME, the US HoR or such. :0)

Then they can even say “Guam will tip over if you station all the troops on one side!”
