Jefferson?



Certainly not McDaniel, such a fine Irish name.

i see what you did there, you changed "name" to "surname" and pretended like no one would notice.

referring back to the study...

http://www.povertyactionlab.org/publication/are-emily-and-greg-more-employable-lakisha-and-jamal-field-experiment-labor-market-discr

they used white names: emily walsh and greg baker

and black names: lakisha washington, jamal jones

emily and greg got more callbacks for interviews than lakisha and jamal.

i'm so sorry that facts disrupt your racist narrative.

you can literally see the names within about 12 seconds of skimming the study.

have fun being willfully ignorant.
Have fun relying on liberally skewed racist data.

You seem to have a world view of a world you don't live in. So why champion it?

The answer surely boils down to simply this: you fancy yourself so intelligent that the world must be forced to submit to your opinion.

That's right force.

including here on riu....I give credit where credit is due and this thread at least has racist in the title thanks godhere I was going to make one myself.
So what is tantamount to force in this digi world? In this specific society?

Hint: its not admin, mods or rules those are only authority.

So you're stupid enough to pay someone tell you what you want to hear?
First off, I haven't paid anyone anything, nor has anyone else.
If you knew anything about the scientific method, statistics, or how these types of studies are conducted, you wouldn't have made such an asinine comment.

That being said, you're a shining example of the result of this study.

I'm sorry, but as far as I can tell, the study was conducted in a way that rules out any bias. You know random sampling, all that good stuff? That's the point of studies. It seems what you right wingers don't like is science, because reality has this way of destroying your world.

the fact is that just having a black name makes you less likely to get a call back for a job.
I just hired ( no feckin' lie ) Farvegnuggin Rashon Johnson Jr last week. Feckin' came in wearing a belt, a tie and spoke proper, unbroken, non-slang English. He might be a keeper. Had to chuckle about "Jr." part though.

The black folks probably didnt get a call back because the resume they submitted was probably shit.
and yet another idiot comes forward to prove that he is an idiot.

if you had read the study, you'd know that they used four resumes, two higher quality ones and two lower quality ones, and randomly assigned the white sounding names and black sounding names to each.

that's literally on the second page.

i swear to Dof that the racist conservatives on this forum are on a mission to prove this thread's title valid.

No, I just wanted to know what they did with the resumes. I didn't want to read that garbage myself, and I knew I could say something like that and you would come charging to the rescue to tell me their methodology.

So thanks for looking that up for me. You might make a good secretary.

On a side note, I can't think of one place I've ever worked that didn't have black people working there, even places where I was the one hiring folks. And this isn't a very dark part of the south.

P.S. The black guy that worked for me was named James... That might be why he got called in for an interview. Darn, those darkies are smarter than ya think! They are starting to name themselves white names to keep us from finding out they are black. Sneaky bastards...

no, you made a retarded and racist assumption about the study that proved that you are too stupid and lazy to even read it.

which is exactly what makes you so well suited to making sandwiches at subway and stealing from your parents.

Ok so that's how it works then, might I suggest White Liberals and Black Rednecks to your reading list and until you have completely read it, I will lump you in a category and suggest what you are out of touch with reality.

Everyone has a reality. And everyone gets to define it. As for science might I suggest chemistry and biology? Might help with finding out the LD50 of alcohol and benzos on a human.

Thanks for putting a nice little label on me and lumping me in as a right winger, really helps your plight which basically seems to be categorizing and labeling based on stereotype.....cause that's really far from racism and all.

how can you say that when you have made perfectly clear that you haven't even read it?
Boston,Chicago

Chittenden County what Vermont?

Ya little slices of reality right there.

Then there's this little tidbit:

bucks source said:
The commission warned that its report should be read with caution and may not mean that race or class is influencing judges when they hand down longer sentences.

"Judges make decisions when sentencing offenders based on many legal and other legitimate considerations that are not or cannot be measured," said the commission, an independent body of the federal judiciary. "The analysis presented in this report cannot explain why the observed differences in sentence length exist but only that they do exist."

ya mean the one where he says brown v. board of education did more harm than good?

where he says blacks were discriminated against after migrating north because they absorbed "redneck culture", rather than their skin color?

thomas sowell is a hack and an idiot.
