Long story short, they mentioned doing an experiment on success of white vs. black names by sending out two equally identical resumes.
The only difference was one had a black name and the other had a white name. Guess which resumes had more call-backs.
I saw that kind of experiment in a Sociology class back in college. No surprise, but people don't want to hear or understand that.
