If people would actually listen to minorities when we tell them this shit, we wouldn't have to do studies about it.
I mean, no fucking shit.
I'm kind of "lucky" in that my name is Italian, my last name is Terry, and I've chatted with more than a few employers that expressed surprise that I was a black dude when I came in for the interview. I, uh, didn't get the job most of the time. I'm a huge nerd, and I sound like a fucking nerd, so phone interviews throw them off too, because I don't "sound black" (eye roll). Some people also read my name backwards, thinking that Terry is my first name, so that throws them off too.
