Bi - Racial Beauties!
I’m a student at the Paralegal Studies Program at FDU in Madison, New Jersey and I have been attending an Employment Law Class for the past two weeks. I have been in this career for over 9 years, but I was shocked to learn that your employer is liable for the actions of the employee or employees if you go to the supervisor or the person in charge of the actions and functions of the employees to complain about any harassing or disturbing behavior. If you report to the “correct” person and he or she does nothing about your situation they may have a law suit on their hands.
This was most shocking to me because I am a half-black, half-Italian 28 year old female that had been the victim of racism for at least 6 months. I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would be the victim of such because I am an attractive female with blue-green eyes, fair skin, and medium length hair and speak proper English. In other words if I didn’t tell anyone that my mother was African-American I could be a candidate to play a role in “Imitation of Life”.
I worked with a white secretary that was highly offended by the fact that I was a bi-racial female employed at an all “white” firm. Never in the years that she had been working there had they ever broke the rules of conduct. She was even more offended because she felt that I had some how “tricked” them into hiring me. I guess at the day of my interview I should have mentioned that I was half-black since it was such a huge factor. Despite the fact that I am a highly qualified Paralegal somehow didn’t matter because my blood is mixed with “black” and I am automatically “not right for the position”.
It is sad to think that I live in a world where we are stuck on race. We are all beautiful no matter what walk of life we come from. I am proud of my race. I am proud that my parents saw past color and saw love. Look at what love created. I am nothing less than perfect. I am a bi-racial beauty who might eventually be a rich bi-racial beauty depending on my old firm’s insurance policy.
