UK – The British air force will pay compensation to dozens of white men it discriminated against.
Officers delayed selection boards in order to try to recruit more women & non-whites. “I don’t really need to see loads of useless white male pilots,” one said.
Recently leaked emails have revealed that the Royal Air Force (RAF) had referred to white men as “useless white male pilots,” which reflects the pressure on recruitment officers to specifically enlist non-white men to improve diversity, per Sky News. As a result, the RAF paid out nearly $200,000 to 31 white men who claimed they were discriminated against in the recruitment process.
