Disclaimer: I didn't read the article and am simply responding to your sweeping generalities. > Nobody fires employees just because they speak funny or some other stupid background. What planet do you live on? To make things perfectly clear, all other things being equal, if someone is fired for a mistake that those with a different background wouldn't be fired for, then they were fired for their different cultural background, regardless of the given official reason. > having in mind what kind of reaction the company will face after firing a black employee. In case you have forgotten, it is possible to be dishonest about why someone is fired or let go.
