Discrimination Interviews: Caste

Описание: If you missed part 1 on the Washington state law banning immigration status discrimination, or part 2 covering the new law banning caste discrimination in the city of Seattle, check back in our feed.

This year, the City of Seattle was the first city in the U.S. to make caste a protected class, meaning it can’t be used to discriminate against individuals. What does this mean? How did it happen? We get answers to our questions in this interview with Medi Abebe, Civil Rights Investigations Manager at the City of Seattle Office for Civil Rights, Katie Walker (CAIR-WA Senior Communications and Marketing Strategist) and Angelique Rodriguez (CAIR-WA Policy Assistant).
