Here’s an interesting question for those claiming that anti-white bias, and anti-white-male bias in particular, is imaginary.
Why do, as a 2021 study found, more than a third of white students claim racial-minority status on college applications? Is contagious masochism sweeping white America?
The Donald Trump administration knows the answer, and its Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is, essentially, delivering it.
The Washington Post reports on the story, writing:
In mid-December, the nation’s leading workplace civil rights enforcer took to social media to pose a question: “Are you a white male who has experienced discrimination at work based on your race or sex?”
Andrea Lucas, chair of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, appeared in the video, urging those who have to contact the agency “as soon as possible.”
“You may have a claim to recover money under federal civil rights laws,” she says in the video, which has amassed nearly 6 million views on X.
… [This] underscores the sea change at an agency central to President Donald Trump’s civil rights agenda — one that began with executive orders gutting the last vestiges of affirmative action, and buttressed by his purge of the EEOC board and a newly installed Republican majority.
Now “fully empowered,” the agency will focus on stamping out “illegal discrimination” stemming from diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs and “anti-American bias,” Lucas said recently….
Enforcement “will stress ‘individual rights over group rights’ she said, and eschew identity politics,” the Post adds.
Of course, this only makes sense because, constitutionally speaking, there’s no such thing as “group rights.” Our Constitution guarantees rights to individuals.
