Te-Nehesi Coates quote about President Obama walking on ice seems so accurate-there were things he and his presidency just could not say or do as a result of 20,000 levels of racism (sad and quite damaging to us and to his presidency).

"We are in a moment right now where people are asking themselves, 'Why can't the Democratic Party defend this assault on democracy?" Coates said. "However you take the state of democracy in America to be, and I would submit to you that if you can't draw the line at genocide, if you can't fight for something that is so blatantly and obviously unjust, if you can't oppose the 2,000 bombs dropped on schools and on hospitals, what does everything else mean?"

Laura Coates drew the line CNN won’t: “I’m not your conduit of bigotry.” No split-screen laundering, no both-sides theater—just clarity. Here’s why that moment matters (and why Trump stays teflon while his followers get punished): open.substack.com/pub/professo...

EFTA01295633 | EFTA01295696 Page 63 785 F.3d 895, *; 2015 U.S. App. LEXIS 7739, ea; 126 Fair Empl. Prac. Cas. (BNA) 1793; 99 Empl. Prac. Dec. (CCH) P45,3O6 the parties' respective evidence." Id. The district court here did essentially the same thing as the district court in Allen, giving weight for good reason to the actual data available to the exclusion of the speculative extrapolation evidence. As in Allen, we should not say that the district court clearly erred in doing so. 6. a. Plaintiffs' statistical evidence also does not apply controls for non-discriminatory factors that could very well have caused any observed disparities. See Lowery, 158 F.3d at 764. Seniority, for instance, influences promotions decisions at Nucor. See, e.g., J.A. 257. Disciplinary issues also led Nucor to reject certain applicants for promotion -- including frequent bidder Jason Guy, who is black. See J.A. 659.67; see also Coates v. Johnson & Johnson, 756 F.2d 524, 544 n.20 ("[A]n employee's prior discipline record seems likely to be a major, if not the most important, factor in [an employment] decision."). But Plaintiffs' experts admitted that they did not control for these or any other "additional factors beyond the control for each job posting." J.A. 1164. The majority would wish these considerations away, reasoning that Nucor never raised them. But Nucor's expert noted the need to "control for characteristics that would seem to affect the chance of selection," which would include matters like seniority and discipline. See J.A. 5893. Anyway, we could have affirmed the district court's decision here on "any basis supported by the record." Defenders of Wildlife v. N.C. Dep't of Transp., 762 F.3d 374, 392 (4th Cir. 2014). [.114] The majority also tries to summon its own justifications for these omissions, implying that records were not available to control for matters like discipline. Maj. op. at 25. Even Plaintiffs' experts conceded that they were. See J.A. 1165 (acknowledging that Nucor had maintained and produced "bidders' training, discipline, and bidding records"); see also J.A. 5893 (Nucor's expert observing that "separate p941] discipline and training files [were] provided to Drs. Bradley and Fox and [him]"). And, based on allegations and personal assessments from Plaintiffs themselves, the majority assumes that potential explanatory variables are themselves racially biased. See maj. op. at 25-26. Yet here again, Plaintiffs' experts do not assume so, perhaps because there is no concrete evidence of such taint in the record. See Ottaviani v. State Univ. of N.Y. at New Paltz, 875 F.2d 365, 375 (2d Cir. 1989) (holding that district court correctly required the plaintiffs to account for potential explanatory variable where the plaintiffs alleged but did not prove that the variable was biased). And even if one were to indulge the majority's assumption that discipline at Nucor was itself biased, that outcome would not justify excluding the variable from the statistical model completely. "[T]ainted variables should not be routinely excluded from the regression equation. Instead, the effects of the inclusion of a tainted variable must be assessed and minimized." Paetzold & Willbom, supra, § 6:13. The majority's reasons, then, do not fill the gaps in Plaintiffs' experts' work. r1151 The failure to control for non-race-related explanatory variables "is sufficiently serious so as to weaken the statistical study's probativeness." Lowery, 158 F.3d at 764; see also Smith, 84 F.3d at 676; accord Rodriguez v. Nat'l City Bank, 726 F.3d 372, 384-85 (3d Cir. 2013); Morgan v. United Parcel Serv. of Am., Inc., 380 F.3d 459, 468 (8th Cir. 2OO4); Munoz v. Orr, 200 F.3d 291, 301 (5th Cir. 2000); Sheehan v.
