I know the reasoning behind the Rooney Rule, but I'm far from an expert on the details of it. So here's my million dollar question? Does a person have to physically look like a minority? Do they have to be a certain percentage minority? I know a few people who look 100% white, but have a good percentage (20% or more) of Native American blood, running through their veins. In the US today, we live in a world where being pure blood Norwegian, German, French, Swedish, Irish, etc. is almost a thing of the past. I'm 2 nationalities, my kids are 5. My granddaughter has like 10 nationalities in her make up. So where is the cut off? What nationalities qualify and at what percentages? Because if it's just a "he looks white" policy, it's a BS standard that needs serious revision.
