Hiring Minorities
In recent years preferential hiring has become an issue
of great interest. Preferential hiring, which was devised to

the same result), but for his skin color.
This seems to be blatant
discrimination, but many believe it is justified. Some feel

preference based on skin color, sex, or religious beliefs is, in
one word,
