I want to be really clear with what I'm saying here. I'm *not* suggesting diversity is unnecessary in social justice.

I'm saying diversity without toppling oppressive power structures is, at best, a cosmetic fix. A brown CEO would sooner bend to capitalism before capitalism bends to them.

There was this notion on the left that diversity alone would do more than it can do. A notion that the simple act of replacing white men was enough to beat the patriarchy.
