‘Most qualified person should get the job’ is microaggression, Russell Group universities say
Academics say guidance on eliminating subtle forms of discrimination undermines a culture of free inquiry
Discrimination is when meritocracy.
I don't understand microagressions, I don't understand how telling someone "the most qualified person should get the job" is racist.
I think everything in life could be considered and twisted to be racist if viewed through a racist lens which is what these researchers are doing.
If anything, what's racist is the attitude the researches are showing. Implying a certain person isn't as good as others at something and thus needs assistance, all because of some ethnical characteristics. Uhm... do we have a name for that?
Yay, paywall.
