We're back baby! Welcome to Season 2, the massive chips on my shoulder have evolved into wider malaise about the state of certain lofty goals we have for ourselves and as a nation. Let's talk about it!
First up is life in the workplace and academia in pursuit of diversity, and how the path towards that worthy goal has gotten bogged down by selective self-reporting, unclear targets, and too much attention being paid to the reactionaries. We remind ourselves that when you take away the semantics (instead of using "DEI programs" asking about hiring employees from underrepresented groups and minorities), nearly 70% of Americans support these types of diverse hiring efforts.
We mentioned Alison Taylor as someone to follow on LinkedIn and here's her new book Higher Ground.
If you've never read Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates, we highly recommend it.
I joke when I say he's my "favorite" hedgie, but I still like the original Herbalife short research by Pershing Square and Bill Ackman, although this latest iteration of Ackman definitely paints him in a more sinister (but was probably always there) light.
