This paper discusses discrimination in employment. The great victory of the civil rights movement led by Martin Luther King, Jr. was one of moral persuasion: King persuaded Americans that it was wrong and deeply un-American to treat people differently based on the color of their skin. It is illegal to discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of his/her race or color in reference to employing, termination, promotion, remuneration, job training, or any other term, condition, or right of employment. Equal employment opportunity cannot be denied because of marriage to or association with an individual of a different race, membership in or association with racial based organizations or groups, or presence or participation in schools or places of worship commonly allied with certain minority groups.
