发帖数: 29846 | 1 Argument from Disparity
Discrimination cases use statistics to put the burden of proof on the
accused.
By Thomas Sowell
A longstanding legal charade was played out again recently, when Federal
Express paid $3 million to settle an employment-discrimination case brought
by the U.S. Department of Labor.
Federal Express was accused of both racial discrimination and sex
discrimination. FedEx denied it.
Why then did they pay the $3 million? Because it can cost a lot more than $3
million to fight a dis... 阅读全帖 |

His July 26 executive order established a government panel to promote “a

Even when those who lagged behind have advanced, they have not always caught

To address the question of whether HYP discriminate against Asian-Americans,
it is instructive to review the Department of Education Office of Civil

OCR concluded that Harvard did not discriminate against Asian-Americans on

China’s transition to a market-based economy has created new problems, one
