Asked my white advisor what they were looking for in candidates and he just said “people of color” Lol
Who would downvote this? It's obvious to everyone in the discipline that skin color was the biggest indicator of success this year

Lotta places are under intense ideological within-department and administrative pressure to hire POC. And that's fine - obviously we all understand the motivation to reduce racial inequalities in access to upper class / upper-middle class jobs, but also to make sure there's enough POC that increasingly diverse undergraduates can relate to. That's all fine. There's a lot of good reasons to want to hire more POC.
What's hilarious is the rapidity with which A LOT of academics will write off that this is what's happening as a paranoid delusion by white dudes with a persecution complex.

I think you can even make an argument that it is a good thing, but it is definitely happening.
