I agree with you, too.
I used to interview students for the Air Force, I didn't even know their race from resumes. I had to interview them. I refused the white guy due to their DUI. Not based on crime, but on his response to the question, What did you learn? He said not to get caught. Heck No.
At the graduation ceremony for our college in 2011, They recognized how proud they were of every black and Hispanic man and woman, every gay and trans and LGBTQeieio , but they never recognized a straight white American man. There were only a couple of us but we paid to go to school there. So of course, while videoing, I yelled out "and every straight white American". They kicked me out
Any yellow people there? They’re usually left out too.
@@theOlLineRebel I've noticed that too. Colleges often present data as black vs white while leaving out Latinos and Asians.
And that is sad and unfair
Well, now hopefully no one else will experience a similar situation, esp with the growing number of segregated commencements. One 2019 report-𝘴𝘰, 𝙥𝙧𝙚 𝘎𝘦𝘰𝘳𝘨𝘦 𝘍𝘭𝘰𝘺𝘥-stated that at least *125* colleges embraced division, exclusivity, and and intolerance by holding segregated graduation ceremonies. Unfortunately if you’re a “cis white” student you’ll just have to utilize that “white privilege” to attend the collective ceremony with all the other “special” students. Btw you’re not gonna believe this but Illinois held one for “MAPS”-apparently not the peԀ0 MAPS but Middle Eastern, Asian, Pacific Islander, and Southeast Asians. 𝘠𝘦𝘢𝘩! They’re sneaking it right in. MAPS?! Smdh.
No one recognized me either and I didn't get triggered... Is it so hard to finally watch black people get acknowledged after hundreds of years of suppression?
This CRT shit is dangerous. As a black man ive gotten spots over my white counter parts.
Me too it's also very quickly creating intense resentment. They are using the colleges to ruin these young brains by not teaching them about anything but skin color. They don't really know much of anything, and I've heard a lot of them.
I own a business and ran many businesses. Number 1 is professionalism, number 2 is criminal history. Color doesn't matter, you just need to communicate professionally and be a professional.
It's all about background. Some people of any race don't have the experience to know what speaking and behaving professionally is. And some people will call it racism without looking at how unprofessional white people are treated because they don't see how unprofessional white people are treated. If they also have the same unprofessional behaviors, they may take it as a personal attack on their culture because they don't understand the reason for the expected professional behaviors.
@jenniferpearce1052 exactly. I use to speak with a lot of slang and wear baggy cloths but employers aren't looking for that. Their not looking for individuals, they are looking for a cohesive team.
When I took this class, at a different college, 15 years ago our textbook, that normally mentioned how there was discrimination everywhere, had a story where a minority student who'd recently completed their doctorate was flooded with job offers, despite ranking 19th out of their class of 25. Meanwhile, the white male student who'd ranked first in their class had gone to the exact same interviews and didn't receive a single job offer. The author of this true story, the minority student, went on to say that they felt guilty for this and questioned the motivation behind the accolades they received throughout their career.
Most white people aren’t rich and we also have to learn how to function in corporate America if we want a job. When I was coming up, I had no clue about social graces and it took a lot of hard lessons to learn what to say and do and what not to say and do.
And that’s WITHOUT PC woke culture constantly condescending to you with training classes and propaganda and departments about how you think!
Those are painful lessons to learn as an adult
@@jenniferpearce1052 they sure are. Many embarrassing moments.
@@jenniferpearce1052 they sure are. Many embarrassing moments.
Having worked in the corp world for more than a decade, multiple times I have been told behind the scenes that "we have to fill this position with X (superficial race/sex) person", but only in the last 5 years. DEI is a huge part of companies now and they absolutely sacrifice capability to quota.
I've interviewed hundreds of candidates for STEM jobs, and hired dozens. Tech skills, communication skills, teamwork and problem solving were always the determiner. Hired minorities and non-minorities, males and females. When there literally was a "tie", the minority always got the nod. Pressure from the HR dept was always in that direction. Criminal record was always a deal-breaker... always.
When I got a job at McDonald's during college, they asked if I had a criminal record and were disappointed when I said no. I found out that a lot of entry-level or minimum wage places get subsidies for hiring people with criminal records because making sure they have a steady income makes a huge difference in keeping them from becoming repeat offenders.
name one subsidy handed out federally just one? you'll be hard pressed to find a state wide program they don't exist. maybe on a purely local level.
@@drkrskyz2291 I don't know the name of the program, just that the manager actually said that it was a shame I didn't have a record because they would have gotten a subsidy if I did. It might have been a local program. Heck, it might even have been a non-government program (like a non-profit focused on rehabilitation efforts). My point was only that having a record might be a plus for certain employers in low-level positions because of stuff like this, but I don't actually know how many of these programs there are. I was in Akron, OH at the time and their crime rates were abysmal.
I don't doubt your experience at all and wish more programs like that existed no one benefits from a person who cant earn enough to support them self,but on a national scale and at the majority of employers any record misdemeanor or felony are unemployable.@@AJsGameCorner
More than half of those students had their attention on their phone
Exactly, I noticed that too, they won't be learning anything or did they just turn up for extra credit.
It's a good thing. This professor is a moron.
Those are the ones who won't change their minds on anything bc they think they know everything.
Werd we ain't important u gotta like be gay o lezbo
I read in another video that the professor encourages them to discuss the class online during class.
Jojo is 100%. There has to be something else that was left out of the Study. Did they actually have the Applicants go to the Interview? Did they answer the Interview questions exactly the same? Were they wearing the exact same type of Clothes? Were they both Personable (Charismatic, Non-Argumentative, Thought before answering questions, etc....). Who ran the 'Study'?? Did they edit their Findings (i.e. threw out instances that went against their desired outcome)??
Something isn't right with that Study.
I completely agree. I know from experience that I have lost job opportunities because my mental health disorders prevent me from shaking hands with strangers, which is a big no for employers.
Attitude also plays a large part in getting a call back, if you have to pick between someone with a good go-getter attitude or someone with a miserable, 'I know you won't hire me so what is the point' attitude, which would you choose.
If they were sending resumes or applications to real employers, there may have simply been more qualified black applicants that didn't take part in the study. If they used volunteers to act as HR then there may be selection bias in the volunteers. It may be that HR is more selective with black applicants than with white ones because of affirmative action. If the study predates affirmative action, then it's no longer valid because that policy DOES influence hiring.
The study has way too many unanswered questions to be valid. The professors data would not hold true in my experience. A criminal record trumps everything else as a negative to hire.
The challenge is getting people to understand the difference between language, and basic skills. The actual need to achieve, and do well in school! The work ethic will overcome any situations over time!
This study is 'The Mark of a Criminal Record' by Devah Pager at Northwestern University in 2003, by the looks of it.
I got laid off from my main job in October and from my 2nd job yesterday... I got tons of recommendations, I'm professional, super hard-working, friendly, and knowledgeable, and my positions still got eliminated. It seems that my white privilege was not much protection. 😂 Really, my performance and positive attitude wasn't enough, leave alone my supposed "privilege".
Sooo many factors not measured in those studies. Attitude. Confidence. Biggest interview tip I can give is that nervousness is contagious and makes everyone there uncomfortable. Bringing (not over-the-top) confidence helps make the employer feel more at ease re: their investment in you.
there is a white privlege and it is strong it's built on the behavior of white people being respectful and good citizens not committing crimes and not acting foolish or disrespectfully in public. whites are assumed to be of good character unless they act in a manner that proves them to be otherwise. i was raised to always be calm and respectful and to never say a four letter word. no kids i was raised around ever said bad words and they rarely became uncouth . my first job was at the country club all white people and the schools were all white except for the forien exchange students.
I think I'm confused about this white privilege argument. How can something be called a privilege if it comes with the requirements of following rules and adhering to societal norms in everyday life? To me, it's sound more like "you get what you work for."
And why white? How about the Japanese? This is a generalization, but they are known for hent... I mean hard work, punctuality, social harmony, respect, and politeness. With this, other races and nationalities may have a set of expectations, requirements, and "privileges" towards Japanese people.
This doesn't even apply to an entire race. Expectations towards Asians are much harder to define since they would be completely different if we're talking about, let's say, Japanese or Chinese.
Continuing this thought experiment, what about Russians? They are white, and I doubt that the average American/European would give them the benefit of the doubt after what happened (though we all need to learn to distinguish people from the government since the actions of a government don't always reflect the will of the people).
And we shouldn't limit this to race since we can go into much smaller groups.
What about the Catholic Church vs Scientology, or the American Red Cross vs MS-13/ISIS, or NASA vs Flat Earth Societies?
So, what is it if it's not a privilege (since most people from a particular group or affiliation have to work for it) and not white since such "privilege" can be applied to other races, nationalities, or other group affiliations?
---------------edit
@17:36 Oh wow, I'm so surprised that I feel the need to do my own research, as this sounds quite bizarre to me. For me, the black guy was the obvious choice. The white guy has already proven that he can't be fully trusted and had no problem breaking the law, whereas the black guy has shown that he can play by the rules. At least, that's my opinion, but what do I know about the world...
I agree with you that the "findings" of the discussed study is off. I work for a fortune 100 engineering firm. I've participated in hiring a LOT of people. Race (or gender) never has anything to do with why someone is given a call-back and/or hired. It all depends on the match of a person's education and experience to the position they apply for. We have a diverse workforce. I'd love to see the details of that study and the people they used to attend the interviews.
I’m a small whites female that would fit a lot of these jobs well but I have felonies for drugs. I don’t get past the background check unless it’s a place that hires felons. Then places around here that hire felons I don’t meet the typical requirements they’re looking for either but I can get in it just takes more effort and convincing that I can work just as hard.
and you can work just as hard often harder.
I'd need to see the study he is saying stated this.
I don’t understand why someone would think that. They have been failed by their communities and schools to have that world view.
"There are three kinds of lies: lies, damn lies, and statistics." ~Mark Twain
In Alaska some businesses & govt position can advertise positions available are "Minority Preference".
Minorities have programs to help with education, job training, housing, medical, etc.
There is not one single job or program that has "White Preference".
I love u jojo! U are such a smart kid and love the way u have your mind opened to different situations ❤️❤️ thank u for encouraging other young adults ! Keep up the great work🥰glad I found u on here
One thing that’s not being looked at with this experiment. Is the personality how did the people do in the interview, did they get along with the interviewer, where is there a personalities compatible, what type of attitude to the person being interviewed have.
All of these things are important for a study of this type
People don’t hire people who do not interview well, whose attitude may not be really good, but I just don’t jive with, and I’m not saying that any of that happened however, that needs to be brought into the equation
I have gotten every job I’ve ever reply for and one of the reasons - I interview well, I am a happy interview. I am quick to laugh. I am thoughtful in my answers. I am optimistic.
My brother, on the other hand is a kind of sourpuss, he’s had quite a few interviews and never gotten the job
Personality matters
I’ve watched you critique many of this professors lectures. After this one I’m somewhat disappointed in him, and I’m not sure how I feel about watching more of him. I will however, this is really in some sort of a way tainted my perception of him.
This professor is one of the worst professors I have ever seen. I saw his BS the first time JoJo made a video of him.
Every time I think he is going to say something sound, he doesn't.
He starts, and you are like, yeah, that's true, but then he says something that does a 180.
Not only is he brainwashing people, but he is also confusing people who can not be brainwashed.
Allow me to give you two perspectives that tend to undermine the conclusion of the contrived studies discussed by the professor here.
Nearly a century ago, millions of black Americans migrated North seeking better lives for their families. They ran into clear discrimination in the North they weren't prepared for. They were used to a certain kind of discrimination from whites, but it turned out that Northern BLACKS discriminated against them. Indeed, black leaders spoke openly AGAINST integrating Southern blacks into the North! They considered Southern blacks to be less educated (which they were at the time, of course, through no fault of their own -- they had been denied decent education by Democratic state and local governments in the South for years) and less "cultured" and would therefore "taint" black communities in the North! Obviously, this discrimination wasn't about skin color, but about other characteristics they saw within the blacks moving North. It was culture, not color, that put them at a disadvantage -- and there wasn't any way for those Southern blacks to hide it when they went in to apply for a job, etc, because their speech and their bearing gave them away. (If you think about it, even to this day, this kind of discrimination exists even against WHITE Southerners, who are often thought by Northerners to be poorly educated "hicks" or "rednecks" based just on hearing their accents or attitudes. Indeed, I've seen industrial and hi-tech corporations headquartered in the North with facilities in the South discriminate against Southerners from the area around those facilities when hiring because the executives are from the North. This is likewise not based on skin color.) [Edit: not that when millions of WHITE Southerners migrated North in the first half of the 1900s in the face of rapid industrialization, executives in Northern businesses were quoted complaining that these whites were "stupid" and even "biologically inferior"! Not an anti-white discrimination, but anti-Southern. These whites had different accents, faiths, and dress -- all of which came to be seen by Northern hiring managers as "low brow". Now think of what proportion of American blacks trace their roots to the South. And what effect has modern black American culture had on the situation? Look up the lyrics of classic Motown songs and compare them to the latest hip hop lyrics -- which do you think had/has the more salutary effect on blacks growing up in the culture of the respective eras? And do you think that "black power", "black is beautiful", and "content of their character" memes were more likely to produce a "hiring me is good for your company" attitude among black job sellers, or do you think "fork white privilege!" and "all lives matter is racist!" does? Alas, today's black job seekers are being oppressed by their own culture and leadership.]
Another perspective can be found by looking at the statistics on educational attainment, income, housing, and other aspects tracked across the actual American population -- not some small, contrived study with people acting out fictional characters in a job interview. In this REAL life scenario what we find is that Nigerian Americans actually do better than white Americans! And this is only one of several groups of blacks that fit this pattern. Now, how is this possible if the discrimination is based on skin color and not other things? Surely, Nigerians cannot be mistaken for white by hiring managers or real estate agents or college admissions personnel. But if you've ever known any Nigerian Americans you probably noticed they stand out from the crowd in ways you might not have ever put your finger on. Those ways are cultural, not color based.
In the end, it's crazy to try to claim that there is NO discrimination against black Americans. But it's also crazy to claim that it's virtually universal (systemic or based on some inescapable white privilege) or that it's based on a black/white color preference.
I love how the student thinks he knows better than the teacher. Talking back and denying facts.
14:00 that chap has been SERIOUSLY brainwashed if that is what he truly thinks. How terrible!! The "educators" who did that abused him! It's horrible
The first guy was actually right in asking the question about the background. Most people not only hire for skills but also for the fit within the team. No matter what the resume says, you don’t want to hire someone who is going to not fit in, which sounds racists as all get out. However, I have hired and fired hundreds of people in my restaurant and financial industry careers. Same formula throughout: do they have the skills or at least the ability and willingness to learn, are they a good fit with the company and team. This formula has lead to great success for many of the team members I have hired; all different races, backgrounds, education levels, and genders. These people had some common qualities: positive attitudes, can do spirit, the ability to learn and learn from their mistakes, and take responsibility for themselves and their mistakes. You can’t know the important info from a piece of paper. Background makes a huge difference in how people are shaped.
Tl;dr - Just because something is perceived as racism, doesn't make it so.
4:08 I don't think there's anyone who believes that discrimination doesn't exist. But a lot of people do try to point out that some interactions, perceived to be racist, actually are not.
For example, while talking to a group of friends awhile back, one of them related an experience they'd had at work. This friend is Asian, and she was troubled because a white female coworker touched a black female coworker's hair without permission. My Asian friend couldn't believe how blatantly racist the white coworker was. In response, one of our white male friends stated that he has had multiple coworkers touch his hair without permission, too. While he agreed that such an action was extremely rude, he insisted that, based upon his own experience, it wasn't a display of racism.
Sometime antiracism is the issue. Im from Poland. There are not many black people in here. There was one time in a IT company that my cousin works there were hiring. For a office job. No IT work. And one of the people that applied was a black woman. She was the best candidate so they took her. And then all hell started. She lectured everybody how to "not be racist", demanded antiracism trainings and pointed very loudly when she saw, or heard something that she was thinking could be racist. The mood was terrible. Everybody was scared to be called a racist. From quite relaxed atmosphere it went to a racist hunt. HR department did not extend her contract for the next year. And they said "never fu..ing again".
I think he was saying background doesn’t matter due to the fact it’s supposed to be an experiment-you dont want tons of different variables or you can’t get substantial results-what he described at the beginning.
Thank you for calling out lies.
Jojo I agree 100% with you, that's not how it works where I live.
I love how people who have never really been in the workforce are teaching what hiring practices are like in the workforce. All things are NEVER the because of the Affirmative Action. A company's workforce MUST consist of a certain number of minorities and females by law. It does not have to hire one white male at all. Statistics can be slanted anyway you want. Ask any statistics professor.
US society in certain ways is more regressive than some 3rd world countries. What is exposed or believed in thid video, being one example of that.
Well culture has integrated with other cultures through trade and war. Issues still arise even today. Most culture/group have a thousand years to figure out how to live together, and we still have some issues. Assimilation is the key here. Although I would say we never deal with this sort of issue of having people that look so different from one another together in one roof.
A lot of companies have to meet DEI quotas, so the minority has the advantage. Some companies are concerned that if they don’t hire a minority person or if they do and later fire them, they’ll get sued. The minority has the advantage in these situations. Other companies don’t want to hire minorities because they are afraid of getting sued if they have to fire or layoff that minority. In this case, the non-minority has the advantage. It is not as clear cut as many people think it is.
I have never regretted taking Electronic Engineering with Applied Mathematics at uni, rather than Gender-Queer Dance Theory. I grew up in a very poor, white neighbourhood, but now have a comfortable middle-class lifestyle. As my late grandmother would say, "What, you reckon some bugger give it to me?" My race didn't play the least part in my success stories.
Wouldn’t be surprised if that professor loses his job one day soon for merely talking about these subjects. It’s disgusting that things have gotten this far… disgusting that so many young people view every from the lens of victimhood and ironic racism
I was apparently so much of a failure in just 9th grade that I didn't even get anything back when looking for colleges in Careers class. Just a hack 1 year afterward on the exact site the school used which is coincidentally the worst hack I ever had. One that was forced.😊
They shouldn't complain as many don't want to work. Lots live with their sugar mommies on gov money from tax payers of all colors. Let's not forget how many of them recieved careers they were qualified for thanks to affirmative actions..... Lets put liability where it belongs....
I went to a job interview. They hired a black person with no degree's instead of me with all the job need degree's. I got looked over so i started my own business
It's based on the number of employees. So if you have three employees they don't worry about if you are being diverse, but if you have 50, the company better be making their quotas
This is hilarious. I have a family member who is a white male with a criminal record and it’s hard AF for him to find work and it seems like everytime he gets a job they are firing him for the smallest things that I think I (without a criminal record) would not have been fired for.
Companies absolutely look at race today and they do it without the knowledge of people. It’s usually the algorithm in the online process. Now it won’t decline anyone but it does flag certain ones and it does promote specific ones over others to the hiring manager or screeners. It’s been going on for a few years at one of the places I’ve worked at.
And this isn’t true about most desirable. Most companies a criminal record will trigger a rejection in the system.
call back saying "thank you for application but we can not hire you at this time"
I am wondering if the types of jobs that are being hired for are being set up for the clients that they are serving too? Though in my life being mixed myself I have to agree with you Jojo.
It's a study that was done, that was the results. My question is WHEN was the study done. How did the candidates dress. How did the candidates act. There are many factors.
5:43 Nope. The student asked about the guys’ privileged backgrounds that led to them speaking well, dressing well, getting their degree, etc. That’s why Prof said it didn’t matter.
I’d be interested to see more information based on equal education among races. My friend has said she doesn’t submit cover letters for jobs unless they write her back and ask her. She just got a request for a cover letter. I get very few interviews and don’t think if I fail to submit all documents they would even talk to me.
If white people have it so easy why have I been unemployed with a Masters for the past year.
At this point in the experiment the background doesn't matter because the HR rep only sees what's on the resume and what the background check dug up.
This whole class exercise was cringey. I like this professor most of the time, but he bugged the heck out of me in this lecture. He projected prejudices that were unreasonable. I don't like pushing victimhood, and that is what this was. Jojo, you have a good head. I appreciate your commentary. Keep it up
The term "Diversity Hire" doesn't exclusively mean "hired because they're black", it encompasses any person they brought in specifically because they're part of that diversity quota, they might say "we need more women" so they hire more women for diversity. "we need more LGBTQIA+++" so they hire more folks from my community. The issue with Diversity Hiring is that in a good chunk of these cases, the people were brought in regardless of their actual qualifications and more along the lines of the company just being like "oh man, check out how diverse we are, we even have a *add diversity-hire trait here*" and they end up not performing well or actually dragging their business through the mud (ex. Hollywood, Google, old-Twitter, all of which have in the past or currently are, working to either catch their hires up on doing the actual job or straight-up firing them because they weren't doing what they needed to be doing.) This is to say that if some random white guy bitches on X about a place hiring a completely qualified black man instead of him...then it's just the white guy being bitter about losing the job. Actually being qualified for what you're in the job for is different than just being a "Diversity Hire".
I know from my own personal experience My company and now I'm not saying it's the most whatever but it hires people without experience all the time and it doesn't matter if they're black or white if they have felons or if they don't have felons with or without experience.
Another part of the equation that i didn't hear talked about is what is the criminal record of the white guy and what job were they applying for? Was he a felon or something more minor. Either way it no job would hire someone with a criminal record over someone that doesn't... regardless of race.
Background would be in their resume.
The reason he said it doesn’t matter what background they came from is because he’s designing an experiment to test how a result is affected by a condition. We don’t care what caused that condition, we want to know whether it even affects the outcome first. If it turns out that the condition we’re testing has no effect, we drop it and move on. Wasting time debating what causes the conditions that are proven not to matter is senseless.
You have excellent experience with professionals offering internships. However most jobs in the US are not "professional" jobs. Most jobs really suck, crappy hard work for garbage pay. And often the Managers are people who were desperate enough that they did sucky jobs for decades. Most managers of the bottom 50% of jobs, are just the best of the bottom 50%. So it's entirely possible that the most uneducated, unprofessional, desperate overworked abused managers, might discriminate. Even if professionals that you work with, do not.
All things are never perfectly equal in hiring between white and black candidates. If you hire the white person and they are terrible you can fire them without worry of backlash or pushback from HR. The risk with a minority is that if they can’t or won’t perform up to standards it is much harder to move on from them. It sucks being stuck with a crappy employee or coworker regardless of gender or ethnicity. By far the best employees I have hired were ones that I interacted with in a professional setting and recognized their competence and work ethic. I have recruited male and female black, Indian, and white people and all have exceeded my expectations. Going off a resume and interview is a really tough way to pick a candidate.
It's a totally loaded study when we don't know what job is being applied for, and what imaginary felony the applicants had on their record.
i.e. if the job is at a day care, and the person has a conviction for distribution of child p*rn...
They don't tell us, and they don't even go so far as to say that both the black and white applicants had the same felony. If they aren't completely transparent, then I will assume it's because they have a reason to not be.
As a business owner, i really could care less about your race, but i do care about your experience, your background, how you present/carry yourself, and are you a good person. I think the left focuses way to much on race. While they love to call people on the right racists, we are some of the most accepting, reasonable, and good hearted people. Never forget, it was the right, who put their lives on line, and fought for the rights of black Americans during the civil war, because we believed in equal rights, and freedom. The left (Democrats) fought to keep slavery, not allow black people to have rights, and looked at them as substandard humans. Yes there is bad people on both sides, just like there are good, but im talking the majority of the party, of what we believe in. People on the right are still fighting constantly, the attacks on the bill of rights and constitutional rights of ALL Americans, attacks done no other then by the Democrats.
Jojo the background doesnt matter at that moment they are testing theroies
It seems the teacher was not saying anyone is right or wrong. He is explaining that you can not form a intelligent or arguable point from only seeing the one statement. And almost any data, no matter how simple, is biased by too many factors to waste your time unless you can thoroughly argue it with all the facts. When you are seen forming opinions without being able to back it up you just look stupid and look like you do not know, he said it nicer than me.
Jojo, hope you watch the entire lecture.
I need to share some true funny stories (now exaggerated jokes) regarding diversity hire.
Surveys don't take an honest sampling based on real communities.
I will try to remember to share it.
I'm seeing a set up around 6.30 time stamp
Talking to people who aren't listening is a total waste of time. Racists like being racists. They don't want to change.
You might as well say, any person without a criminal record is more likely to have a job regardless of race.
To be critical of the discrimination study:
First, it doesn't actually measure reactions to skin color, but to "white sounding" and "black sounding" names. A name that's easily identified with a skin color may not say much about the person with the name, but it does say something about the person's parents, and thus background, that goes beyond merely what race they are. Fair or not, if someone has the first name 'Preston', I'm thinking "snob", and the application is headed for the trash can. For others, Nkebele De'shaun Åfrika Johnson may be a bridge too far.
The study gives a percentage of employers, not of jobs available. Since there are a lot more small businesses than there are large ones, while most jobs are with large businesses, not small ones, the resulting number says little about actual chances of getting hired. E.g. if they tested Amazon and two corner stores, and the two corner stores only hired white people, this study would show 66% discriminatory practices, when, in reality, Amazon has 1.1 million employees, and the two corner stores have less than a handful between them. That would mean that, between these businesses, 0.00045% of available jobs are given based on race. Obviously, I'm not suggesting that this is the real number; even the wildest optimist will realize that it's more than this. I don't know what the real number is, but I'm sure it doesn't start with a zero. I'm just pointing out how absurd results can get.
It also says nothing about the type of jobs. The higher qualifications are needed, the less the likelihood that two applicants will be identical, and the higher the likelihood that, if they are, there will be some diversity quota or desire to "virtue signal".
I find it very plausible that small businesses are more likely to discriminate on irrelevant factors. Where large businesses will have established criteria and practices, small businesses make it up as they go. Where large businesses have internal oversight, to discover and reprimand/dismiss overt racists (or enough of them to keep the rest scared), small businesses don't. Possibly more important than one might think, in small businesses, the one who does the hiring will be working closely with the employee, and with few other colleagues. That means they'll look for someone similar to themselves, and they'll be doing it with nothing more to go on than a formal job application. That's not an excuse; in fact, that some will think they have more in common with a felon of their own skin color, than a non-felon of another skin color is either disturbing, irrational, or both. Still, it's not completely irrational; skin color is still an indicator of cultural background, even if less so than before. Billy-Bob may not be entirely wrong in assuming that he'll have more shared culture with Bubba than with Thamsanqa. If shared background is important, and skin color is the only indicator, cynical rationality dictates using that indicator. I find that people's emotional intuition is frequently aligned with cynical rationality.
"It wasn't racist, because technically he's talking about white people."
Ummm...what?
I think he meant because the guy saying it is the same race he is talking about.
I'm not saying this is why the majority are referred to as monkeys still but that tends to happen when you don't leave the ignorance of the animal kingdom behind you. And before anybody says anything I'm referring to the ignorance of the students although the one still voting Democrat fall into that category.
And people who think that way will be victims their whole life
I'd be curious when this study was conducted. In a previous job I would take part in college admission decisions. There was a big push for diversity, meaning white applicants were the least desirable of the applicant pool.
The reason was the same as 40 years ago black people have a hard time with the English language, its functional illiteracy not the color of skin so how do you get black people to read?
Got half way, can't even listed to this, absolute rubbish. No one would pick the guy with a criminal record. Sometimes wonder about this professor!
Either Sam smoked too much dope before this class, or the person who conducted the study did. He literally said the white guy WITH the criminal record got called back more than twice the white guy WITHOUT the criminal record. LMAO.
You misunderstood the study the professor was citing, the study was focused on the individuals aka control group doing the interviews, the job candidates were actors or participants who played their history script meaning the people being interviewed real backgrounds were never revealed to the job interviewers which is why the Professor kept saying it didint matter.
Oh let these young people believe what they want believe. They won't change their minds. I feel sorry for them. It's almost like they feel it's hopeless for them to achieve what they want to so why try.
And how does background matter unless it's criminal when applying for a job ?
I am happy that you're an open minded person. And I don't know what the answer is to fix all the problems in the world today but I do know you are part of the solution
The professor is always interesting, but is biased. Most studies get the results they want to get. The professor cannot say Trump without a sneer in his voice, Trump voters, same thing.
Businesses, even if they don't have official quotas are going to seek out minority candidates so as not to appear prejudiced.
I've seen over the past 10 years at my job the diversity change happen and have concluded after conversations with new hires from the diverse backgrounds, have become better workers and have a better attitude and persona than most of the white hires we had working already also including the white new hires. Just over the past year almost every new hire that has been hired came from a diverse background with a felony criminal record and are blowing the interviews out the park with their new mindset of wanting more instead of falling back down the rabbit hole that got them the felony record in the first place. Our new hire staff has done an amazing job weeding out the less desirable candidates no matter what background they come from. Before the last 2 years my company had so much turn over due to lack of people actually wanting to work or wanting to learn their new job that we have had to out source to hiring agency and rent workers just to stay on schedule. Those rentals were for extended period of time,most were 90 days, just due to the training involved to find a worker that's willing to learn and do the job required. We have even implemented hiring female workers to do jobs that most men that were hired couldn't or wasn't willing to do and they have succeeded so much so into high ranking promotions within our company. Yes there are sources of racism in all aspects of life but if the person continues to let racism be the cause of not succeeding shows that there not willing to rise above and show their worth. Stop letting racism dictate your character and have a conversation about viewing it from a different perspective to show how you feel you are being wronged. At the top of the whole BLM movement I set out to want to hold that conversation within the black community just so I could get a better understanding of what turmoil they are or have went through and I now see it from a different perspective than what I was seeing and reading with my own eyes. I've found that respect and equal opportunity is really all they're asking for and to not be treated differently like they have for hundreds of years. If all people would put blindfolds on and just hold a normalized conversation without seeing color you would find that most people who come from diverse backgrounds are the same people but because of the narrative portrayed most people let skin color dictate outcomes that aren't favorable for those from diverse backgrounds. Not everyone is perfect and not everyone is bad you just gotta approach it with an open mindset without bias toward one way or another.
Professor has gone woke.
To me what he's saying is that this is an experiment an independent project part of the curriculum to have a specific conversation on a subject, in a lot of other conversations he engages deeply in what the student was saying. Kinda like why are you talking about history when we're having a class about math.
There is an old saying that states: those who can’t do, teach. What a complete waste of time. This guy gets paid for this?
If i judge a person, race does not need to be a factor. Your attitude and intelligence can be.
This is an extremely dated study based on what the professor said at the start and it's also the professor's opinion that it's the best measure of discrimination to date -- sure, it's the best measure to use if you want to prove to your class that racial discrimination and white privilege is an issue today. Why didn't he cite the study? or even mention any of the particulars of the study? there are so many reasons why this study could have had this outcome, but it's impossible to argue the validity of it because he didn't give us a single piece of information about the study that we could use to find it and fact check it, or compare it to other more up-to-date studies, or see if it has been peer reviewed or anything.
I also disagree with those results! ❌
I do not care what color you are. If you have a criminal record I will not hire you, the person with the record is high risk to the company.
But did they answer every question the same. Did they wear same clothes. Did the they have the same attitude. Did they have same charisma.
Academic fantasy.
See him sneer when he said "Trump?"
Turn on the News and you will see why
I’m sorry Jo Jo but in this instance you’re wrong. He said let’s do an experiment and in an experiment you need controls to show how you get your results. So I this experiment no the background that is not on the resume is not relevant.
Post results of his experiment.
His results are bs. As a former employer in the UK we the employers even after all these new policies hire on merit.
Wow this professor is absolutely a white guilt guy. He literally is just lumping Trump fans into a category when there's so many different races that love Trump and cultures. I really can't take this dude seriously but I do love your videos bro. I know you're going to be successful in life
I assume background means what kind of culture a person was brought up in. If you are saying white people need to allow for the fact a black person was brought up in black culture borders on the ridiculous. If the culture doesn’t work, change the culture. But don’t dare ask me to be racist and positively discriminate by assuming the black person is disadvantaged by the culture the person was raised in. Either way you get to call me racist.
He is a dedicated teacher need mo white human beings like kim trying to change even if he mess up a lil. Racsim be a complex thing
It really has to come down to their background, experience and education. Like even McDonald’s doesn’t want criminals working there. Either that or the white criminals are just better at interviews….That kind of experiment is so easy to skew, I don’t think this is accurate.
It's probably somewhat true but there are other cofactors.
THis experiment was done incorrectly, the interviewer should not know what the variables are and just be brought in to do the interviews blindly. The professors conclusions with the so called stats at the end does not have all the variables of the stats presented. This class does nothing to enlighten but to indoctrinate.
Yo we only like 13-14 percent in america. Why unemployment so high. U in denial bro. Go around the world u see the same problem.
Dude your background absolutely does not matter at a interview. Where you come from what you have been thru wont ever even come up in an interview. You just need to be articulate, demonstrate knowledge about the position and come across as competent and capable of doing the work. Other then having like a felony on your record your background will almost never be discussed in an interview.
Please point out discrimitation when it's a real issue. We all need that. It is a real issue. But we all know what happened to the boy who cried wolf. There's a reason for that story. Please don't invent stuff.
