McDonald’s races to hire over-50s as companies seek to lure retirees back to work
McDonald’s has kicked off a recruitment drive to hire more over-50s, amid a scramble by businesses across the country to fill jobs with retirees. The fast-food behemoth is among companies launching fresh recruitment campaigns targeting older workers, with adverts posted by McDonald’s showing a grey-haired worker who “isn’t the retiring type” enjoying a job with the chain. Photographs of over-50s are also being used to advertise jobs at one of the UK’s largest insurers as part of a wider fightback against age bias. Phoenix Group, whose boss Andy Briggs was made the Government’s business champion for older workers in 2017, said it has added more photos of grey-haired workers to its recruitment page amid fears that older people are being discriminated against when it comes to hiring. The move comes months after the business banned what it deemed “younger-age stereotypical words” such as “energetic” and “enthusiastic” in job adverts to avoid deterring older applicants.

"Hundreds of years of colonialism has restricted our sentiments, distorted our thoughts. When we see even the smallest … [Read more...] about Video: Watch Mukesh Ambani celebrates Independence Day with wife Nita and grandson

What W. E. B. Du Bois’s Forgotten Romance Novel Taught Me About Writing
After my father’s death, I didn’t write for two years. Even reading fiction no longer interested me. But when a friend mentioned W. E. B. Du Bois’s Dark Princess , a romance novel published in 1928, I was curious. The novel had been disparaged and overlooked by critics; maybe that’s why I was attracted to it. Did Du Bois, the renowned social scientist and activist—whose seminal book of essays, The Souls of Black Folk , remains one of the most influential works of African American literature—really write a romance? I had never been a reader of the genre , but death had recalibrated so much of my relationship to the world that it was hard for me to be definitive about anything, even my own tastes. Dark Princess begins in New York City with Matthew Townes, an aspiring obstetrician who is prevented from continuing his medical studies because he is Black. After leaving school, he travels to Berlin, where he meets Kautilya—a purple-haired princess from India who invites him to … [Read more...] about What W. E. B.
