The abolition of slavery<\/strong> was purely a matter of being bad for employment to quote: “Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, nor any place subject to their jurisdiction.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Aversion to Institutional racism<\/strong>\u00a0in UK Police and policing was also purely a matter of being bad for employment: \u201c\u2026the collective failure of an organisation to provide an appropriate and professional service to people because of their colour\u201d. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Staying on the course of what is \u2018good for employment\u2019;<\/em> it has taken two hundred (200) years between the two Williams – William Wilberforce and William MacPherson \u2013 we argue, to pay heed to racial discrimination in employment.\u00a0 But it still persists. \u00a0ESRL notes that despite these two seismic events, an Equality Act 2010 was and is still necessary. \u00a0ESRL further observes that the Act may be a bridge for \u2018another wait\u2019<\/em> for \u2018another 200 years\u2019<\/em> before \u2018another William\u2019<\/em> stands up to say enough is enough. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In the meantime, powerful\nemployers are trumpeting disconnected anti-discrimination messages in different\nforms of employment as paraphrased in the quotes below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jack Alecho-oita,\na director at Equalities Sensitivity Rating<\/a> Ltd comments as\nfollows: \u201cI have been blessed with opportunities to learn and know how to prepare\nfood in the kitchen. While in the\nkitchen, it can get very hot for cooks; but they endure until the food is\ncooked and served. So we should not\ndespair. A world of non-racist\nemployment is still a hot and boiling subject dish undergoing preparation and\nover time can become palatable. Our task\nis to continue turning up the heat on racism and all forms of discrimination. Not all is lost.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Editors Notes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n http:\/\/www.pinknews.co.uk\/2013\/12\/18\/uk-equalities-minister-due-to-attend-sochi-winter-olympics\/<\/a> PinkNews has learnt Equalities<\/strong> Minister Helen Grant is\nhighly likely to attend the Winter Olympics in Sochi and that there is a strong\npossibility her …<\/strong> PinkNews.co.uk<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n http:\/\/www.heraldscotland.com\/news\/crime-courts\/ex-husband-released-from-jail-is-hounding-wife-he-abused.22983445<\/a> She has urged Equalities<\/strong> Minister Shona Robison to\nmeet with Ms Gordon to discuss these “failings” by the SAS and the\njustice system.
