"Black? And, Purple? Yellow? Orange? (No White?) Huh. What's with comparing black with those other non-human colors? I don't get it. So you reject alums post about implicit bias. You believe there is no implicit or unintentional bias in hiring choices.? No bias? No problem? OK, if that is your opinion. The NFL or at least their policy cosiderations indicate that it not agree with you. Peace.
Extending the logic that me mentioning black with other colors (most of them not found in the pigment of other people) is de-humanizing is a stretch. You're missing my point. I am saying that the color of a person if they were orange or chartreuse or some other exotic or "unusual" look matters absolutely ZERO to me. It's not a part of the equation. Can they play? Can they coach? Can they lead an organization?
Silly tangent. Dr King was a big fan of the original Star Trek and convinced Lt Uhura not to quit the show. They had white, black, yellow, and green (Mr Spock was supposed to be kind of green, but paled a little under set lighting), serving as a team without any thought of color. Kind of like Dr King's dream. If integrating non human other colors was good enough for Dr King and Gene Roddenberry, it's good enough for me

In “Created Equal”, Clarence Thomas discussed the Implicit Bias he witness while he worked at Monsanto.
Unfortunately we are lacking in MLK’s and Gene Roddenberrys in key positions in society.

Right. No racism was involved despite the different outcomes for the races No, Mother Nature was not racist in giving the races different amounts of melanin. Sadly, white people have mistreated and oppressed black people for hundreds of years because of the color of their skin.
