Workplaces: Eeoc Files and Workplace Bias

workplaces: The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, which enforces federal laws against workplace bias, explicitly cites comments like go back to where you came from as examples of potentially unlawful conduct, according to CTV. Similar phrases routinely show up in lawsuits that the EEOC files against employers alleging discrimination, harassment or retaliation based on race or national origin. Yet in many of America's workplaces and institutions, the same language would be unacceptable and possibly illegal. Apart from its legality in workplaces, Trump's language has ignited impassioned responses across racial, ethnic and political divides. No matter what colour you are YOU can go back home or move if you don't like America. It wasn't Racist! tweeted Terrence Williams, a black comedian who supports Trump. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
