Even if you object to their choices of black surnames, they also ran experiments with male and female names, and with hispanic names. In those cases, resume screeners were all but certain as to the race and sex of the applicant. Still, there was almost no discrimination detected. Honestly, I feel like I'm playing whack-a-mole here. You started by claiming that there was a massive gender & race bias: > CVs/books sent around with just the name/gender changed and the huge difference in response rate to see the bias. When I corrected that and linked to a study, you replied with an argument based on a misreading. When I corrected your misreading, you fell back to, "I don't think you can meaningfully isolate class and race, since they're so inter-related in the US." If that's the case, then it also refutes the conclusions of the original (flawed) studies claiming racism. After all, if your argument is true, those can be just as easily explained as classism. I'm not sure there is anything that could convince you that you are mistaken. |
