Always wonder why schools don’t openly promote and celebrate diversity hiring, as if that’s a bad thing.
We should celebrate diversity hires like how we celebrate first gen college graduates, immigrants, and self-made millionaires.
Getting a job as diversity hire is such an achievement for our society as a whole (as well as for themselves). It shows our society capable of balancing interests. Denying diversity hiring or not openly celebrating it is nothing but stigmatizing diversity hires.
Bad idea.
If you did that you'd also have to celebrate all of the white guys who got a leg up because they're white guys.
The celebration would go on for years.

You're the MSNBC trool who still thinks America is in the 1950s?
You realize as a result of affirmative action that a black woman born in poverty has greater opportunity to escape poverty than a white man born in poverty, right? And for 20 years, the most impoverished whites have lower life expectancy than the most impoverished blacks?
In what sense do you believe anyone at all in 21st century America ever gets a leg up simply for being a "white guy"? What data show that? It's more like they're penalized at every level for that and unless they come from a wealthy/connected family they're totally screwed over. Have you spent too much time watching Joy Reid and reading Teen Vogue, and not enough time, you know, actually doing sociology and looking at data?
Neolibral dude!
Why didn't you attach that one article that you usually attach when you bring up black women's upward mobility?
Bad idea.

Is economic leftism really so unpopular in US academia that all people bringing up any leftist viewpoints are automatically considered the same person?
I realize the modal US sociologist had their brain broken by Nike commercials and twitter, but still. Is soc really that monolithic of a field that the most common leftist criticisms of the corporate-identitarian Democrats, that appear constantly in publications like Jacobin that are very popular among intelligent young peopple in the US, are met with weird conspiracy theories like that posted by f70d? Where is "neoliberalism" even mentioned?
There's a guy who keeps posting about black women's social mobility. He also always talks about neoliberalism.
Are you that guy?

Marxists commonly bring up black women's economic mobility to counter the corporate identitarian viewpoint. I'm looking through posts on SJMR on this subject going back pretty far, and they seem really pretty standard as far as leftist criticisms of the Democrats go? And none of the posts you mention talk about "neoliberalism" unless there are some I'm not seeing?
So, "Yes" you are that guy.
Why pretend that you're not and you had no idea what I was talking about?
That was weird.

I searched through the archives and I'm seeing a lot of posts about this and they clearly aren't all being written by the same person. I never posted on this site before this year. Is sociology in the US really so ideologically monolithic as loyal partisan Democrats that you believe any and every leftist viewpoint posted on the internet is coming from the exact same person?
So, "Yes" you are that guy.

I’ve done all that, and yet I am not the poster you’re talking about. So there are at least two of us in sjmr. Probably more. Maybe focus on ideas instead if personalities. Resemble an intellectual, not a diversity hire.

This is total drivel. NOne of these "stats" you are referencing are true. Go to the CDC website you drone.
