Sorry, you all, I was trying to emphasize the "knowingly" part.
I think the study revealed a bias that the screeners likely weren't even aware of. I don't think the screeners had the intent to remove everyone of color, if for no other reason than it would clearly be illegal.
I didn't mean they weren't biased; of course they were. But if you don't even know you are doing it, it will be even harder to correct, but of course, no less real in terms of harm.
