Chapter 9- Institutional Discrimination

Institutional Discrimination is how discrimination is woven into society. One example of this is with home mortgages. Early studies show that bankers were less likely to give loans to minorities rather than white people. This is the cause of equal opportunity statements in loans and job applications. Speaking of job applications, I have included a picture of Cracker Barrel’s equal opportunity statement. This means that the company cannot discriminate in hiring or any other area of the restaurant based on race, sexual orientation, or religion. This is one of Cracker Barrel’s current missions that they are most devoted to; treating everybody fairly.
