I Hate All Forms Of Racism

@GJOFJ3 If the ad specified race, then it is racist. Especially when it comes to employment.

@chrisCA not in the case of in home care by an individual. I am allowed to specify gender religion and ethnicity. If a corporation specified exclusion of a group or groups of people tgen it would be discrimination.

@GJOFJ3 I agree. I’m an AA. I have mixed kids. One Asian, and one white. I would prefer my kids be around people that look like them. It’s to make them feel comfortable. And maybe that person can give them something I can not. It’s the same for parents who adopted a child outside of their race. It’s what’s best for the child. But people see it more as racist, than the care of the child.

@GJOFJ3 I prefer to have a black doctor to care for myself. Because I can relate to a black woman, than I would a white woman, or a man in general.

@NaturalBeautyQueen your choice. No problem

@GJOFJ3 very true and thank you

@GJOFJ3 Then again, it depends on where you live, and the laws. You hear too many stories of private nannies being taken advantage of. Even if there is not a law, the couple hiring could face a social media backlash.

@chrisCA not over something like this. And if people want to know what the person meant, I’m sure they left a phone number, for anybody to ask for more information, regarding the position. And I’m saying this as someone who lives in a place where I experience racism all the time. I know what racism is, and this isn’t it. Unless I missed something, tell me. But a preference in this particular case, is not racist.

@NaturalBeautyQueen very well stated.

@imLobo true. If they said that they only want people that are African american around their kids, because they don’t like another race, that would be a different story.
