An employer will never hire someone ill suited to the job just because they fulfill a quota. It just doesn't happen in most places. It's not worth the wasted time and resources, plus, depending on the hierarchy of the workplace in question, if it's not the boss doing hiring and firing, a badly suited new employee reflects badly on the person who gave them a job.

When I've hired people I was always advised to judge it on two things mostly, suitability for the job and how well their personality would mesh with the other employees. Sometimes the best person for the job isn't always the most suitable, sometimes you look for a good attitude and potential instead of raw suitability. I've personally have never been made to make an employment decision based on race or anything else. Hell, most companies I've worked for won't even ask that kind of stuff until after you've been employed and you have to fill out your details and such.

I think it obvious it was the black woman trying to to place the blame elsewhere here. Don’t let that stop you turning it around completely though and blame whites.
