So, let's presume that, in the past, KKK members who were employers made it a point to favor white job applicants. Is that OK? In the past, it was legal. They could do it openly, because the civil rights act of 1964 hadn't been passed.

Not OK? Then why is it OK now, especially since it is ILLEGAL now? Favoring one race over another is racism. Period. It doesn't matter which way it goes.

Exactly. And look at a person's soul, which goes unrecognized.

Mark Cuban is so annoying and says such stupid illogical stuff maybe you should move on and focus on something else...

You can do more DEI hiring if you simply added employees or if your an Ivy League school accepting more applicants without taking away spots from others. Voila!

It's still racism, if one race is favored over others. Real people apply for those jobs, White, black, Hispanic, Asian, whatever. For any institution to deliberately favor one race is just another way of saying they are discriminating against another race.

These are real people, not chess pieces. The individual who has individually gone to the effort to establish himself/herself as the most qualified candidate should get the job. In other words, merit pay. That's all blacks who were discriminated against wanted. And I supported them. Now we're expected to support reverse racism. It's illegal, it's immoral, it's unethical.
