Recall that Title VII makes it unlawful for an employer to discriminate against an individual "because of such individual's race ." 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a) (emphasis added). So if an employer is happy to employ whites and blacks but will not employ any employee in an interracial relationship, how can it be said that the employer is discriminating against either whites or blacks "because of such individual's race"? This employer would be applying the same rule to all its employees regardless of their race.
