Answer 1

To support this claim, Erasmus must show that he is a member of

a majority group

Step-by-step explanation:

• Civil Rights Act of 1964 is a landmark in the history of the USA as it protects the rights of the labor who are treated with bias due to their color, sex, race, national origin etc.
• As Erasmus has filed a suit against Drain-Pro for reverse discrimination, which is defined as the discrimination against a majority of people to favor the minority of people, so then Erasmus should belong to a majority group in order to win the suit under the claim for reverse discrimination.
