In March 2023, a recruiter for Arthur Grand Technologies posted a job advertisement looking for ‘US Born Citizens [white] who are local within 60 miles from Dallas, TX [Don’t share with candidates]’

A tech company in Virginia has been fined thousands of dollars by the Justice Department over a job advert seeking “whites only” candidates.

In March 2023, a recruiter for Arthur Grand Technologies, an information technology services firm based in Ashburn, posted a job advertisement on the recruitment website Indeed for a business analyst for the company’s sales and insurance claims team.

The job posting said that the company was looking for “US Born Citizens [white] who are local within 60 miles from Dallas, TX [Don’t share with candidates]”, according to the DOJ.

      When you want whites only, it is racist and you get sued, but when you want non-whites only, it is not racist and no one gets sued? This is a double standard.

      When you get “whites only” for over 200 years and then get upset partially not-whites for maybe 20 years. Then throw a tantrum.

        Well what about US born only citizens? What is it about white Canadians, but US naturalized?

            US naturalized means US citizen, just born in different country. What logic they can possibly use to defend that (unless they themselves are American Indians, which somehow I doubt)

        These ghouls stripped affirmative action, ended roe, have states passing mandatory display of the Ten Commandments, and have sites like Twitter removing content because “cis” is now a slur. It’s never enough. Endless victim complex. The entire country could be white male straight Christians rolling coal on the weekends and they’d still complain because their neighbors don’t match.

          Irish/Italians/Catholics would lose their white privilege again.
