[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I saw this job post and the emphasis on the importance of a social justice and racial equity background seemed unusual for a position like this. It was wild for a job which features a requirement to have a “politically neutral perspective” to also require infusing all of the council’s work with racial justice principles. As someone who reads a lot of postings from social justice orgs, it feels right in line with those and really unusual for a government position. An interesting read.

jesus that's crazy.

i think many formerly prestigious and/or useful positions in society (like this one or, say...president of harvard) will pretty soon be understood to be welfare programs for less talented people that happen to be "of color."

Talented people will just find new areas to be productive.  Unfortunately, we'll be ruled by even dumber beurocrats that we historically have been.[/quote]
