As much as I don’t care for DEI as a guiding “doctrine” for hiring, I also think companies shouldn’t be anti-diversity by law. Like intentionally hiring people because they aren’t white, no (and feels like tokenism/racism) but also intentionally hiring only whites (or the majority race) is a bigger no. Especially if more qualified candidates are being passed over solely because they’re PoC. Also companies should be inclusive so as to not be shit companies in general? Can someone tell me if/why my take is dumb or poorly thought out?

I posted above a few studies that show unconscious bias in hiring practices against people of color. There is a reason why DEI exists. It's like OSHA laws. Every rule for these programs has a great misfortune behind it.

Neat! I didn’t see that, I’ll give them a read.

A very succinct way of phrasing it. Cheers for that and for posting the studies.
