Jonah Creighton Case
It is unfortunate that racial discrimination exists in the workplace. In an ideal world, equally qualified people would have equal opportunities. However, it is something that our culture is faced with on a daily basis.
Although racial discrimination is widespread and exists at many companies, the Jonah Creighton case put into perspective what happens when someone actually takes a stand against such an injustice. Most people who are unaffected by this sort of issue remain apathetic. Jonah Creighton was a man who risked his job and friendships to pursue a matter he felt very strongly about.
I felt that this was a very important matter to discuss in class. Even though I drew my own conclusions about the case, listening to what others thought helped me see the issue from other points of view.
