Study finds ethnic discrimination rose during Paris Olympics

Original: I had the pleasure to contribute to a paper showing that # ethnic # discrimination against men with North African names

A new paper reports that ethnic discrimination against men with North African names increased during the Paris Olympics. Researchers, including a contributor announcing the findings, link the rise to market tightness in high-price areas, which pushed hosts and providers to be more selective. Minorities reportedly received slower and colder responses when seeking services, adding to evidence that discrimination intensifies when demand outstrips supply.

Why now: The Paris Olympics put a global spotlight on discrimination in France, and the new findings tie a measurable spike in bias directly to that period.
