The prevailing opinion of at least some offices of diversity

is no... or at least, skeptical to the point of being
what effectively amounts to the same thing as no.
Thanks for any tips/pointers/case citations.
Yes. Not only is it possible, but you can probably find a few dozen cases
online about it.
You want a perfect example?
Look at the NBA and the college basketball teams.
90% of all players are black.
While those that run and manage the teams are white.
10 white guys who apply for the position, are overlooked simply because 1
black guy wants the job.
As compared to 30 or 40 years ago when it was the other way around.
