Discrimination against people with different sexualities has gone on for a while but is more recently being brought into the light. I think that knowing how to be a good ally is definitely important is supporting people who are being discriminated against which is why the video she included was so important. However, I found the excerpts of people explaining their experiences to be more powerful because it really brings to light how people are treated and for something that should not matter to anyone but themselves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also enjoyed Sherri&#8217;s interpretation and ideas of <em>Algorithm-Driven Hiring Tools: Innovative Recruitment or Expedited Disability Discrimination?<\/em> I think that people who do not have disabilities might not be able to see how people with disabilities are discriminated against and bring the topic into the light is important for companies as well as people who are discriminated against for something they cannot control.

He has one argument, but different types of evidence to support the argument. When moving between the first couple points of evidence he uses small phrases that can be related in a way to everything that he is saying like &#8220;But that&#8217;s an aspirational hope&#8221; and &#8220;Those efforts have merit&#8221;. Both of these comments conclude what he is saying in a way that the reader might not even see it as a transition. His next point after each transition relates to the previous point which is what causes the transition to not feel like one. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1.
