In America, a white person with a brown hair will not be able to get a job in their area of employment. I know this is just some American thing, but it is crazy to think about.

    I think there is more to it than that. I know it sounds stupid but, you know, I am so proud of my country and all it stands for. And I don’t mean that just because I am proud of it, I don’t want to be ashamed of it. I am proud of what it stood for, and I want to make sure it still stands for something else. I am ashamed of the fact that in my country, you cannot get a job unless you have a certain hair color. If you have brown, and your hair has a very natural color, you can’t get a job.

      I think a good example is the United States. The government has taken it upon themselves to determine which race/ ethnicity/nationality people should be allowed to apply to the US Government jobs. In general it’s a mixed system where the top 1% of people have access to most of the best schools, top healthcare, top entertainment and top military all at a significantly lower cost than other places. It also has to be in the name of the job, not the ethnicity/race. Which is a very hard thing to do. I know some people say it should be in the name of the company but the government won’t allow that. Anyways I'm asking because I’m black and I’m currently unemployed in America and I have to find a way to get a job, how do I go about it?

        The only way to do this is through the federal government. However it’s very hard to do, it would be great if someone would make an effort to help me get the job. Also if you do get hired you have to give up the rights you already had or you wouldn’t be able to. So my best hope would be if someone with money, connections or some kind of power to help me find a job. I would like to know how and what you guys think this might happen

        What if the jobs you get are in the same city as your family? You could be in a different city if your parents live there, but that would be a problem too. I’ve heard of a couple of black guys applying to similar jobs and then getting turned down because they were not black? I have also heard of some white guy applying to the same job with a different accent? I’m pretty sure they’d be ok if they could get a job there

      I was thinking about this a bit more deeply. In America, a black person is not allowed to get a job in their area of employment. In Europe, a black person is allowed to get a job anywhere, but the government in Europe is not allowed to take away their rights. In my own country, the government in the USA is not allowed to take away your rights. In Europe, the government in the USA is not allowed to take away your rights. So why is that?

      I believe in diversity. But there’s a difference in being black or white. If a person is white, they’re an above average white person. If they’re black, they’re below average.!!!

    I’ve always thought that white people in America just don’t pass. I’m not talking about passing, I’m talking about not passing. I just think that because they have white privilege they should have the right to be able to be discriminated against.

      The US government doesn’t deny citizenship to anyone, and nobody is denying that a white person with a brown hair has the right to work in their area of employment. They could be working in another country, or they could be employed at a different company altogether. The government doesn’t have the right to tell anyone, and nobody is denying that a white person with a brown hair has the right to work in their area of employment.
