This program will explore how overtly racist and sexist discourse coming from the Trump administration infects workplaces, including a look at how such discourse has mobilized employers and employees to be more proactive in preventing pervasive sexism, racism, and religious bigotry that people bring to work. The program will also consider how this sociological phenomenon has affected the courts and case law in particular, including in the recently decided Supreme Court cases adjudicating the rights of LGBTQ+ persons under Title VII.
