In an exclusive Afternoons with Amos interview, Audrey Wiggins of the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under the Law updated listeners on the class action lawsuit charging that the 2010 Census’ background check procedures discriminated against Black and other minority applicants for Census jobs. Recently, evidence was presented that the EEOC told the Census that their procedures violated the law. Wiggins also told listeners about the continuing problems of background and credit checks unfairly keeping those arrested and convicted of crimes years ago from gaining employment.
