The United States has been long considered as a nation defined by diversity . An article from the website Mesriani Law Group mentioned that this country is a point where in culture and faces meet . It is the union of languages into one word , and images of many people into one name However , it cannot be helped that cultures would clash , and the array of disagreements could be far and wide

It cannot be helped that

some minds could remain closed even after all the decades different people co-existed . There remains biases and stereotypes , which label so many people with negative names . Although there has been actions and campaigns to counter this unjust behavior in society , it cannot be helped that the ideal one nation is still under construction

Racial discrimination is also most evident in the workplace , where the battle for the better color continues . It could be the pressure from the norms constructed then construed by society . It could be the tradition they never outgrew . It could be the close-mindedness of people developed by years of inclusion from the many realities of life . Whatever caused this unjust treatment in the workplace , it persists to be a problem in an individuals professional life

This aimed to give light to the basic laws that protect the employees from the different forms of discrimination in the workplace Finding the basic information one should know about this unjust activities is essential in finding conclusions regarding the matter Furthermore , this aims to relate cases into the deliberation to have a firmer grasp about the issue at hand . This is to re-establish the reality of this issue in the country

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964

With the rise in statistics regarding racial discrimination in the country , laws were also raised and deliberated upon to protect those who experience this kind of injustice . According to the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission , there is a law that aimed to protect the individuals who are discriminated against due to their race and place of origin , as well as their sexual orientation and religion . The law also aimed to protect those who are discriminated due to the color of their hair and eyes . This category also includes individuals who are in anyway associated with any particular culture that is different from the host country

This law is the Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 . Employment cannot be denied of any person due to the color of their skins . This law also mentioned that it is applicable to any organization . The local and state government organizations are not exempted from this law and should abide by it

Under this law , it is also prohibited to make organizational decisions based on the stereotypes and general assumptions of different cultures They cannot point specifically the different races , even those multi-racial individuals , when regarding the organization
