People hire and fire people, and do not have to give any reason for it. Every job that I have had, with the exception of industry work only has a certain amount of minorities working there. It's mostly white Americans there...minorities work harder than whites, and will do more then what's required of them, while whites sit around waiting on the best jobs to come along.

It keeps people with secret hatred towards minorities, and other groups that are frowned upon from exercising their judgement base off of an inner hatred towards minorities. Once removed, could cause a regression in progression that so many people died to make possible.
