You can't believe that anyone other than Disney is interested in diverse hiring or what?

Technically, it's racism. They're picking people specifically based on their race and/or skin colour, not based on their resume. If that equation's not problematic for you, you should be able to switch the races.

Quote from: RhinoAlien on Jul 07, 2021, 06:50:29 PMDiversity achieved through racial discrimination. What does "white-dominated" signify? Most white people are not in the industry.
Quote from: RhinoAlien on Jul 07, 2021, 06:50:29 PMDiversity achieved through racial discrimination. What does "white-dominated" signify? Most white people are not in the industry. There are likely more white people outside of the industry that would like to be in the industry than are in the industry now. Should they get special treatment? Any white person in or outside of the industry likely is only concerned with whether they are in the industry or not, not what skin color grouping they fall into.

I've been on this site for over twelve years and I think this might be the single most bewildering thing I've ever read here.
