Ibriam Kendi is often quoted as saying "The only remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination." But is that true? Above the main entrance to the Supreme Court is a promise chiseled into the marble façade, "equal justice under law". How can we have equal justice under law if one side is always discriminating against another? Enter the case of Ames v. OH Dept. of Youth Services, where Marlean Ames claims she was discriminated in her job because of her sexual orientation. What makes this case uniques is, Ms. Ames is heterosexual, and the Sixth Circuit claimed that ment she had a higher burden of proof than a homosexual.
