How do you even justify the white is more suited? You are not even in the HR department. How do you know the newly hired doesn't provide additional value to the team, due to his background, language and culture?


It was just a fake scenario to give an example. You can pose all the hypotheticals about the situation you want lol.

Situation:
Company hires a black male over a white male because there is not enough diversity within the workforce, even if the white male is more suited for the job.

Is this an example of reverse racism, and is it a real thing?


yes

There is no such thing as "reverse racism" in the United States. Situations in which people claim "reverse racism" are more aptly describing situations of prejudice.

Racism is tied to a sociohistorical system.

When deciding between a black v. white potential employee, companies may take into consideration their ethnicity because adding diversity to a company is in many ways a benefit to them.

So, White people can be racists, but black people cant.
Everything makes perfect sense to me now.
