Recommended sentence
Fine upheld at $500,000, plus mandatory anti-segregation audit by neutral observers (not HR). Ban race-exclusive employee gatherings until they can spell 'colorblind' without air quotes. Public ledger of all future trainings required, searchable by any staffer tired of ritual humiliation. Repeat offense doubles the tab; no priors on mercy.
