Description
"Much is at stake in the retaliation claim. The fear of retaliation and an awareness of the profound social costs of claiming discrimination are the primary reasons why people stay silent in the face of perceived inequality. For discrimination law to provide meaningful protection, legal standards must protect persons who perceive discrimination and give voice to their concerns. This is a worthy goal for discrimination law to pursue, as giving voice to discrimination produces a myriad of benefits, both personal and societal. Vocalizing opposition to inequality opens the door to important societal and institutional change and enables challengers to begin a valuable dialogue within their communities. By fully protecting persons who confront discrimination, the law can provide greater space for contesting and possibly reshaping the social norms that facilitate discrimination in the first place."
