Well it sounds like you just called him a racist anyway. It's not racist if some of us are simply observing hiring practices. There will always [I] be more white males. That's not the point. The point is, women and minorities are getting the interviews first. But not always hired first. Just an observation. And if this is the same "ghost" from PPW, you have my deepest respect.
