Daniel Henderson is representing himself and his brother in the lawsuit. "For it not to be taken seriously by the district attorney sends the wrong message.’’. The literature you’re quoting though, says that if that’s what you’re doing your violating the law. Johnson said he and David Henderson, a civil rights attorney with the Ellwanger Law firm, want to take the police video and other evidence to a grand jury under a Texas law that allows “any credible person” to do so. David Henderson is a Dallas-based civil rights lawyer at Ellwanger Law. One could even say “so 1960s.” The reason: The Act was applied to reduce discrimination in hiring for only a very short time. There is nothing about a literacy test for voting that is, by itself, racially discriminatory. I agree there’s some value and validity to the ‘post-racial’ meme that started bubbling when Obama got elected but let’s not make too much of it. If not, why not? Civil Rights Attorney David Henderson, who is representing protestors in civil violations cases, says Governor Abbott's announcement is about politics and not solutions. Civil rights leaders have waited seven months for Dallas County District Attorney John Creuzot to publicly address the fate of six DeSoto police officers accused of brutalizing a mother and her family in response to her 911 call in August. While my example is ridiculous, there is literally no appropriate box for me to check on most forms. “Outreach” (say placing more help wanted ads in minority areas) is not a quota and I wouldn’t call it reverse discrimination unless you’re prepared to accept discrimination claims based on the opposite criteria. ) Doing this, would also simplify matters for those individuals like staticvar where conflation of ethnic background leads one to be unable to find a check box which fits. (My words for his thought.) Yet, amazingly, this did not stop either country from knowing who was who. Peter Johnson, founder of the Institute for Non-Violence, is requesting a meeting with Creuzot to discuss why the DA apparently did not take the case to a grand jury to weigh criminal charges such as official oppression or false arrest. The secrecy has sowed confusion and outrage among civil rights and victim advocacy groups. In addition to the words of the legislation we have statements made by its supporters–including Hubert Humphrey–that the law didn’t impose quotas, nor require any kind of racial preference in hiring. Two city police officers who have by the chief for some officers and turning a blind eye toward instances of police brutality, have alleged that some officers frequented the club and prostitutes there, according to this story in the Meriden Record-Journal. One officer tackled Anderson when she briefly got off the ground. Just last week a jury awarded $250M in punitive damages to a class of 5600 women against Novartis under the Civil Rights Act. All of which was quickly forgotten as the legal wrangling in the wake of its passage changed the law 180 degrees from its language and intentions. "A mother who called for help was clearly terrorized by police,'' said Sara Mokuria, co-founder of Mothers Against Police Brutality. State governments use the data to determine congressional, state and local voting districts. Farmer told The News that Long said her investigators made efforts to talk to witnesses. A fairly strong legal challenge could be mounted upon the fact that races do not exist, in a scientific context, but are merely labels applied by racists. You are wrong about racial discrimination not caring about self-identification, simply because most organizations allow me to self-identify. But despite the call, questions linger, such as whether the officers were interviewed. I perused the first link, an ACLU policy paper which may or may not be definitive but it too directly states that your affirmative action program cannot be to set a percentage of minority employees or contractors and hire towards that. But first, Johnson needs Creuzot and Long to meet with them to understand what the DA’s office already has done, he said. Would it be a good idea for the federal government to override state governments’ and local governments’ quotas (aka, “goals and timetables”) for filling various jobs?
