Reviews the major points of the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Watson v. Ft. Worth Bank and Trust, which broadened the means by which plaintiffs in race or sex discrimination cases may prove that discrimination occurred. The Court held that the disparate impact analysis method of proving discrimination, which the Court had previously applied only to objective employment practices, could also be properly applied to subjective employment practices.
