most U.S. cities have "isolated" wealthier suburban neighborhoods on the cities' periphery, which are often majority white, and have few visitors from different socio-economic backgrounds. There are also other "segregated" poorer downtown areas, often majority non-white, where residents have few interactions with people of different backgrounds than them.

University of Washington: People mirror AI systems’ hiring biases, study finds. “When picking candidates without AI or with neutral AI, participants picked white and non-white applicants at equal rates. But when they worked with a moderately biased AI, if the AI preferred non-white candidates, participants did too. If it preferred white candidates, participants did too. In cases of severe […]

"The story of how my community has rallied to protect and defend our neighbors in recent days, as ICE has targeted the Rogers Park neighborhood in Chicago. Although this is not a story about a moment of victory, it is a story of being reminded of our power."

#Conservatives have for generations used denigrating #language to describe the *conditions* of major #cities & called for greater law enforcement, often in response to changing #demographics in those cities driven by #nonwhite populations relocating in search of #work or #safety from #RacialDiscrimination & #StateViolence.

Republican state lawmakers argue their proposed redistricting map would create Latino opportunity districts. But a Democratic state rep says the map is drawn to leave Black and Latino residents with a fraction of the voting power of whites.

#CivilRights lawyers who have monitored the cases said the move is another sign of the #Trump administration’s retreat from the department’s mission of protecting the rights of vulnerable groups. Since January, Trump’s #DOJ has dropped #RacialDiscrimination lawsuits, abandoned investigations of #PoliceMisconduct & canceled #oversight of troubled #LawEnforcement agencies.

The proposed map targets districts dominated by coalitions of Latino and Black voters, with a focus on districts in the Rio Grande Valley, the Dallas-Fort Worth area, and Central Texas. Houston Democrats would also see their districts shuffled.

“I am hesitant to draw this conclusion — but I have an unflinching obligation to draw it — that this represents #RacialDiscrimination and #discrimination against America’s LGBTQ #community. That’s what this is. I would be blind not to call it out. My duty is to call it out.“ —Judge William Young, on the #lawsuit brought against the #trump administration for its decree to blacklist all #DEI and #LGBTQ research

"Secretary-General's message on the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination [scroll down for French version]"
"The poison of #racism continues to infect our #world – a toxic legacy of historic #enslavement, #colonialism and #discrimination. It corrupts communities, blocks opportunities, and ruins lives, eroding the very foundations of #dignity, #equality and #justice..."

On #InternationalDay for the Elimination of #RacialDiscrimination its more than appropriate that #TheDisciplesWay is reflecting on Mark 3:31-34 This is the story of where Jesus declares “For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, & my sister, & mother.” This verse rings a bit different for adopted people like me. The parents who raised me, my siblings & other relatives are my family [hard stop] I have no desire to know whether or not we are blood relatives or if I have unknown blood relatives out there somewhere. It doesn’t really matter to me. That is both liberating & a burden because while I can choose what aspects of family I wish carry forward, I am also aware that everyone I encounter is a potential relative which colors (or should) how I treat & interact with them. I strive to be authentic (although I am a private person) & meet people where they are, without expectations, because that’s what family does/is. I’m not always kind but I don’t wish anyone ill.

Please at least share
The hotel hasn't been covered consistently for over a month. The hotel must take priority above all, or else they'd be in danger. #Homelessness is illegal.
Lack of valid identification, registration & active phone service make it all the more important the hotel be covered. Though they're citizens, this #disabled #BIPOC #immigrant family doesn't have valid identification to establish citizenship & that's assuming #racialdiscrimination wouldn't put them in danger.

#SCOTUS decided it's #Constitutional for those without shelter to face arrest. #Disability & #racialdiscrimination add to this significantly. We should be rallying to help those in need. We need a sense of consistency in #communitysupport.

A case which sets a precedent?
"As Justice Angus Stewart of the Federal Court read out his judgment summary — which determined conclusively that One Nation Senator Pauline Hanson had racially vilified my client, Greens Senator Mehreen Faruqi, and contravened section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act when she told her to “piss off back to Pakistan” — his evident humanity and compassion helped bring home that this case was both the engine of future consequence and the product of past hurt."
