Workplace discrimination due to sex or other protected characteristics -- like race, color, religion or national origin -- is illegal, but courts across the country have disagreed about how substantial the unequal treatment must be to merit a legal claim. In this case, the city argued that Muldrow's lateral move at the same pay grade wasn't significantly harmful enough to meet the standard.
The Supreme Court disagreed, saying an employee just needed to show "some harm" under the terms of their employment, but it doesn't need to be "material," "substantial" or "serious." The decision makes it easier for workers to sue over discriminatory job transfers.
Some employment lawyers say the same reasoning could be carried over to workplace development programs or employee resource groups designed to benefit traditionally underrepresented cohorts: for example, a fellowship that only accepts Hispanic students or a leadership program only open to women.
These top down legal decisions have been made before and ignored (Bakke etc.) A few litigants might make some money, but financed outside subversion has clearly won the day in lieu of 'law' with the endless bales of fiat money in local jurisdictions and institutions so far. These have to be removed extra judicially by citizens and elections (good luck with that in captured fake elections to boot). How many are going to spend a million a case grinding this shit through court against either taxpayer Guv supported adversaries or well funded private sources?
Trump of course does this by pulling the financial rugs out from under them resulting in much wailing and gnashing of teeth from the balefully financed. It goes back to the Rothschild braggadocio that they don't care what the laws are if they control the money.
It also doesn't mean the the local 'discretion' of judges and officials will ever follow the 'law' if they are Soros fecal impaction types. It just forces more lawfare burden on the abused and misused. We are in the status where 'legal' aka endless expensive procedure roadblocks trump the 'lawful'.

YAY! And it should. "Our corporate executive mentorship program is only for Black Women" IS discrimination.
