Also horribly flawed. In several states if you are not white your resume is just thrown in the trash. There are several studies on this. People simply do not like others who they do not see as equals or as similar to them.
I don't think we can attribute as much of that happening to racism only. With all the DEI initiatives happening its becoming more so the case that people are seeing through the experience and realizing a lot of the accomplishments by minorities are due to favoritism and "help" than actual experience. Whether that is true or not is irrelevant because people believe it.
I personally feel bad for the dedicated, accomplished and smart minority developers that I've met. They get drowned out in all the noise caused by these DEI drives.
So that somehow justifies unequal treatment of people in another state? The only long term solution is not being part of the problem by discriminating on anything except on value brought to the job.
