I agree with many of the things that you say in your essay. I am against bigotry and any form of thinking that places one person above another based on race, sex or creed (or any other category). Unfortunately it is still a reality in our society and throughout the world still even in the twenty-first century.

The one thing that I disagree with you on is that these bigots should hold their tongue. I would much rather know where bigots stand then for them to hide in the shadows and use their bigotry behind the scenes to discriminate against others without us knowing what they are doing. As far as Google is concerned, the management at Google/Alphabet needs to decide on a company policy that allows for people to be rewarded based on their work and not held back because of someone's group bias. Would it not be better for the management to know that one employee’s evaluation of another is based on a unfounded bigotry than to think that the employee is not doing a good job and punish them based on the bigotry of the evaluator?
