Just wait until they find out that these people are not talent scouts for Sea World.

About what I expected. She does play those spoons with talent and style tho.

Herbert Nitsch, The Deepest Man On Earth
can't say I would promote this - fine that this guy can develop this talent, but we frequently lose deep dive wannabes who try this without proper support teams and end up drowning due to shallow water blackout...
DC-3 Bush Air Cargo Alaska
I've reached a point where anyone praising an invisible deity for the skillful work of a talented human just immediately pisses me off. Hey dipshit, someone worked hard to achieve that - if your god wants credit, they can show up and claim it.
Wow didn't know Lord was such a good pilot, on top of being a musician. She's done a lot for a young person, no wonder all these people are so happy to cheer her on.
The Check In: Betsy DeVos' Rollback of Civil Rights
@newtboy,
"Yeah, that's honest, move to a profession where one single specific type of performance is the entire job..."
Take any highly competitive field and you've got similar professional grading based upon excellence in the field. Legal, Medical, Engineering, the same kind of professionals can be found hunting for top tier talent in any of these, no different than the NBA. Their criteria can be every bit as colour blind and there is strong economic incentives to do so to boot.
"Side note: there have been some who suggested affirmative action in sports, requiring a certain number of white players on teams. Indeed, there were white leagues that fought tooth and nail to not let even the most talented non whites participate. Just sayin...."
And that would be racist, and it was wrong, and it's something we should be glad to be rid of.
Just sayin....
"Race is considered, period."
Reasonable, non-racist people are going to disagree with you. They are going to, correctly, call your policy racist.
Can you really not see the other side that thinks fighting racism with racism is the wrong approach?
The Check In: Betsy DeVos' Rollback of Civil Rights
You mentioned SAT scores, no? They clearly DO benefit one group, rich whites.
You said "If one has a color blind computational method of creating a qualification score for candidates, how do we most fairly use that score to choose candidates." I pointed out that we don't have any such method, offered some of the reasons why the SAT is biased, and made suggestions of some things that must be taken into account to create one.
Edit: any method that ignores the exceptional efforts required in overcoming the pitfalls of being non white in America in order to be color blind, by definition, cannot be used fairly.
Yeah, that's honest, move to a profession where one single specific type of performance is the entire job, then claim it's possible to rate other jobs the same way. If the job can be boiled down to something as simple as how many times you can score a basket in one hour and NOTHING else matters, that works. There are very few professions like that, and educational opportunities should be nothing like that, especially when there's no unbiased test to determine intelligence, educational ability, and work ethic.
Side note: there have been some who suggested affirmative action in sports, requiring a certain number of white players on teams. Indeed, there were white leagues that fought tooth and nail to not let even the most talented non whites participate. Just sayin....
Race is considered, period. The argument is that being non white should be considered as a positive, an obstacle being overcome, rather than a negative, a biased excuse to deny opportunity.
