I worked in HR years ago...I hated when “disparate impact” would come up. I refused to understand it, use it, etc...I would basically, figuratively put my fingers in my ears and yell nananana when I heard it. Luckily, at the time, even tho I had to write Affirmative action plans never truly dealt with DI...
Wow. Dealing with AffAct is bad enough. Imagine being a math teacher in a blue state or especially in California:
“These students aren’t excelling at math. What’s the cause?”
CRT proponents: “A racial imbalance is evident on math scores. Disparate impact theory is evidence of racial imbalance is evidence of racial discrimination. Ergo, math is racist.”
It’s the reverse scientific method with a predetermined cause.
