The article explores employment discrimination as a multidimensional problem which often stems from a combination of employer bias, the organization of work, and employees’ responses to conditions. Kessler’s research illustrates how Title VII does not sufficiently account for these dynamics. She also proposes a set of legal interventions that would help courts and policymakers better address the domino-like dynamics that result in inequality for workers protected by Title VII.
