Latinos and Middle Eastern Americans: Work Discrimination

Booth-Clibborn, Celeste Evangeline Florencer; Smith, Raymond Arthur

This issue brief demonstrates how both Latinos and Middle Eastern Americans suffer from discrimination in the workplace. It highlights the issue that affirmative action is evidently not doing enough for the minority groups it is meant to affect, and should be applied to Middle Eastern Americans, many of whom are Muslim and thus suffer from work discrimination on the basis of their religion, too.
