Diversity Hiring
1. Who created and/or formulated this "buzz phrase"—“DIVERSITY HIRING”?
2. The United States Department of Labor really must clarify this phrase...we all would hope: What are your thoughts?
3. What does the phrase “Diversity Hiring” really mean to you and who does this phrase actually define?
4. Does this new-fangled phrase of someone else’s notion of what Political Correctness is suppose TO MEAN help or hurt your chances of landing a job / career advancement in America?
5. What are your thoughts about “DIVERSITY HIRING” as possibly being a measure of the ANTI-AFFIRMATIVE ACTION movement (in America and possibly abroad) and by those individuals, groups, and of course companies that only wish to identify certain ethnic groups that THEY PREFER NOT TO HIRE?
6. Whose “culture” defines the so-called and highly subjective “CORPORATE CULTURE” along with their hidden rules about which employee is either IN or OUT?
Deeply ponder the above questions. Those of you (within this so-called madness entitled “DIVERSITY CANDIDATE”) who are indeed highly qualified for the employment opportunities you have applied for, have been lucky to land at least a silly telephone “screening” interview or perhaps a face-to-face (f2f) interview or two, and still DID NOT land a job offer—well, think about WHY! I surmise that being "dissed" or dismissed over the telephone is perhaps "better" than one having to her or his waste time, money, and gasoline even though the prime objective in the employment search is to meet with the prospective employer en persona.
Furthermore, what you are thinking in the back of your mind may not be and probably is not just your imagination...or your just being overly sensitized to all forms of discrimination handed to you in a "piss pot"! Oh my, and does that pot smell.... It is more than likely that you ARE NOT the “right” skin color, shape or size, age, gender, and more…as though or if you had some control or choice regarding the hue of your skin from inception! Why do you think that those who can "pass" as a certain race and skin color often do so? Why are so many potential employers / hiring managers are surprised when YOU show up for a f2f interview and they have that "DEER IN THE HEADLIGHTS LOOK"!
Please remember, in the United States of America, discriminatory hiring practices ARE ILLEGAL! We will begin to publicly list companies that we have researched since 1979 through the here and now who skirt around THE LAW with their insidious and divisive hiring practices.
We at the highly ethnic-diverse membership of the Temple of Kemetic Wicca surely frown upon RACISM, BIGOTRY, and PREJUDICE and those humans who think, practice, and project these negative psychological behaviors and physical actions!

In reality, those humans who promote such a negative agenda myopically believe in and rely on myths and stereotypes handed down to them beginning with their personal familial environment, and then of course stimulated and thus reinforced via the media.
Everyone’s socio-cultural, ethno-historical, and contributions to our so-called melting pot of America should be taught in schools worldwide!
Gee, this is not rocket science! Let us all begin to tackle these important issues and collectively solve many of the problems we all share here in America that of course have spread abroad! America is supposed to have been the seat of democracy and freedom—FOR WHOM?
All in all, you need to push back against the myopic human resources practices of many businesses across the United States!
Otherwise, start your own business--IF YOU HAVE THE FINANCIAL MEANS TO DO SO!
Clearly, nothing has changed in the so-called "United" States of America other than the chronological date and naturally...the weather!
