La bellezza nel mirino dei nipotini degeneri di Martin Luther King. Per i datori di lavoro è un incubo. Il caso degli Hotel:
“… If a charming or intelligent person can have an edge in the job market, why not a handsome or stylish one? Neither charm nor intelligence is distributed any more equally than good looks. But in the lawyer’s view, personal appearance is simply not a legitimate source of value outside a few conventionally artistic fields like theater or cinema… The essence of the job in a hotel, they insist, must have nothing to do with look and feel, which are extraneous considerations. A hotel shouldn’t use its staff to create an aesthetically pleasing environment or send signals about what sort of place it is…”
