A New Author Uncovers the Real Truth About Racism in America

A controversial new book examines racism and favoritism in the 21st century
 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release)Jan 24, 2008 – In his new book, Diversity Values Professionalism or Favoritism Racism, African Americans and Other Minorities In The Workforce, author Daniel Vincent Pierce blows the lid off politically correct corporate America to uncover the undercurrents of racism and favoritism still prevalent in the modern American workforce. A victim of blatant racism at his place of employment, Pierce decided to write his new book after learning that other African-Americans and minorities were still experiencing similar examples of discrimination in their own professional lives.

Using real world stories from corporate America and the U.S. government, Pierce boldly shows how the predominance of white males in positions of power in the U.S. provide the foundation for continuing racism and favoritism. Pierce uses examples from major corporations such as The Home Depot and Staples to prove that the tradition of non-diverse corporate leadership in our country erodes the very core of fairness and non-bias in the workplace. In addition, the author clearly defines how the government’s handling of tragedies such as 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina demonstrate an overall bias against poorer minorities.

“Whatever your ethnic origin, I believe this book will help clarify an important issue for every American,” Pierce said. “It’s time to start understanding that the issues of racism and favoritism in our country have not disappeared, but merely been swept under the rug. In order to beat this problem we must first understand it. Diversity Values Professionalism or Favoritism Racism, African Americans and Other Minorities In The Workforce Reading is a first step in gaining that knowledge.”

Diversity Values Professionalism or Favoritism Racism, African Americans and Other Minorities In The Workforce is a powerful, compelling picture of racism and favoritism in America, depicted against the backdrop of current events in the 21st century. The result is a shocking portrayal of a major workforce problem that many Americans believe was solved long ago.
