Please be sure to include each of the following in your paper:

· Choose a Case to review from https://www1.eeoc.gov//eeoc/initiatives/e-race/caselist.cfm?renderforprint=1#hiring (For Example under Hiring: In September 2014, the EEOC appealed the dismissal of its race discrimination complaints alleging that an employer’s withdrawal of a job offer from a qualified Black applicant because she refused to cut off her dreadlocks constituted race discrimination under Title VII. On the appeal, the Commission contends that the district court improperly dismissed its original and amended complaints because they stated plausible claims of intentional discrimination. Specifically, the Commission argued that the employer’s application of its grooming policy to prohibit dreadlocks discriminates on the immutable trait of racial hair texture, violates the fundamental right to freedom of racial expression, and promotes unlawful racial stereotyping. EEOC v. Catastrophe Mgmt. Solutions, No. 14-13482 (11th Cir. Brief filed Sept. 22, 2014).

· Provide an explanation of the steps an individual would take to file a complaint with the EEOC.

· Identify two current issues or events (in the news within the past two years) raising potential claims of discrimination in the workplace similar to the case you chose to discuss.

· These issues or events should either be similar or relevant to the issues raised by the case your chose above on the Significant EEOC Race/Color Cases scenario website. https://www1.eeoc.gov//eeoc/initiatives/e-race/caselist.cfm?renderforprint=1#retaliation

· You should articulate your input giving an analysis on why these events raise potential discrimination claims and explore (based on the LAW) how the EEOC and the U.S. court system responded to this issue or event.

· A clear and well-articulated description of the value of diversity in the workplace must be the focal point of your paper.
