You can characterize that as an act or as an omission, and you can bicker about my state of mind, but at the end of the day you have an institution which has pretty much always hired fewer ethnic minorities than it should, and I played my part in perpetuating that.
OK, now you answer my questions.

I don’t think I can call you a racist. The terms that fit are negligent or apathetic. You did nothing where you feel you should have done something.
