Unfortunately it's probably true, hiring managers might discriminate based on name only. Don't name your child LaTanza

Trump is letting the Army handle all the logistics concerning Puerto Rico. They are working as hard as humanly possible to restore a completely demolished country. What is he supposed to do, cry and whine like the libs do, or trust in those on the ground....those who really know what they're doing?
This President wants to fire those who kneel during the anthem, considers those who chanted "Jews will not replace us" to include "some very fine people" and has nothing critical to say about Putin and the Russians - whom 17 intelligence agencies agree tried to subvert the 2016 Election!
It would appear that the veracity of "The Donald's" verbal attacks and tweets bear an inverse relationship to the magnitude of the threat these 3 incidents have for the nation - the greater the threat, the more muted the response!
You are absolutely delusional

The name is the easiest thing to change, but changing a name doesn't cure the underlying injustice. Why erase an identity just to make it harder to prove there's a problem?
We arranged the Berlin airlift in two days on the other side of the world to protect a city inside Soviet-controlled territory and keep it alive in response to a Soviet blockade. That was 1948. Are you suggesting we can't do something similar in the two weeks since a hurricane landed.
What we lack now is the political will and interest to do something about this. And perhaps the know-how of who to call.

Maybe black hiring managers would hire more black sounding names and Chinese hiring managers would hire more Chinese sounding names. How do we solve the "INJUSTICE" of people favoring their own race? How can we find more injustice, so we can all hear you and the left whine and cry?
Keep going through life opposing the government, it's really working for you.

The military was already there.:noway:
I'm not talking about solutions here, Pat. I am asking you to acknowledge the existence of racism. The solutions will come later.
And...? Apparently FEMA is too, but they haven't been authorized to provide aide. What's needed is someone with the power and the willingness to requisition things besides private jets for their personal travel.
You are confusing prejudice and bias for racism. We know the left loves the word racism, but let's be serious.
You lefties latch on to any little mistake in Trump's administration, distracting from Trump's incredibly successful Presidency. Charter flights? Who cares?

What's the surprise?
One of the main reasons he got voted in was to get us out of the free trade agreement.
Americans lost jobs while poor dissidents of foreign countries are getting exploited by American corporations.
The Jones Act insures American jobs and the only thing happening to Puerto Rico is they have to pay the same freight charges as all other Americans.
If you want to get into why they're poor you'll have to go back to slick Willie and the Republican Congress which included deluded McCain.
They passed an end to tax cuts for the Companies operating there, as well as the free trade agreement and voila no more jobs.
You need a dictionary, bro.
I just looked those words up, try it. Don't be lazy

Yeah, right, because we didn't just listen to eight years of conservatives, prominently including Trump, complaining every time Obama went golfing. And we're in the midst of a hurricane response disaster, with people actually dieing for lack of diesel fuel, and multiple Trump administration officials embroiled in controversies about chartering government planes to go on vacations while they ignore Puerto Rico, and it's somehow wrong to point out the disparity.
