Isn't that the oposite of racism? Wanting a more diverse, more minority group included seems to me like the right and most progressive thing he could do.

When you put his argument in context in why he voted him down..it makes sense.


“The nomination of Marvin Quattlebaum speaks to the overall lack of diversity in President Trump’s selections for the federal judiciary,” Schumer said. “President Trump replaces not one, but two scuttled Obama nominees who were African-American … It’s long past time that the judiciary starts looking at lot more like the America it represents.”

Basically Trump said I want whitey in there and undermine the 2 appointed African American dudes.

“It is long past time that the judiciary starts looking a lot more like the America it represents,” Schumer said. “Having a diversity of views and experience on the federal bench is necessary for the equal administration of justice.”

Why isn't Schumer resigning for the Senate to make way for a minority and thereby create more equality in government?

Schumer has valid complaint, esp for a Judge in slave state SC

Repugs are nominating judges because they ARE white (and extreme right wingnut ideologues and/or incompetent)

Racism is discrimination based on race. Even in the name of racial diversity, racism can exist. It doesn't have to contain prejudice. It only has to have a disparate impact when skin color alone is the deciding factor, either for or against.

Discrimination is discrimination.

NEW LAWSUIT EXPOSES GOOGLE'S DESPERATION TO IMPROVE DIVERSITY

Arne Wilberg, a former technical recruiter in Google’s YouTube unit, filed suit, alleging that YouTube illegally used quotas as recently as last year in an attempt to hire more black, Latinx, and female engineers. Exhibits in the complaint include a screenshot of an internal document where recruiters tracked diversity goals for women and minorities, as well as two emails where a hiring manager instructed the recruiting team to “only consider” candidates from “historically underrepresented groups.”

Wilberg, who worked as a Google recruiter for seven years, claims that he was retaliated against and wrongfully fired for complaining that these practices discriminated against white and Asian men. Black and Hispanic engineers, the racial groups Wilberg claims were unfairly favored by YouTube, together account for only 4 percent of Google’s technical workforce.

According to the lawsuit, Wilberg’s attempt to raise the issue of quotas did not go unnoticed. Google launched an investigation into YouTube’s hiring practices in 2016, but recruiting managers allegedly tried to cover up the practices in question, including asking recruiters to delete emails and references to tracking a candidate’s diversity status. Wilberg also claims that a YouTube staffing manager instructed the YouTube recruiting team to “clean up” its diversity hiring practices, but told Wilberg that the changes were temporary and recruiters would return to quota-based hiring.
