"Liz Truss, the new Conservative prime minister, announced her cabinet, and for the first time ever, not a single member of the inner circle... is a white man...."

"Were there hosannas throughout progressive Twitter heralding this racial, ethnic and gender diversity as a step forward for society? Not exactly. Instead, the change was dutifully relayed, often with caveats. 'Liz Truss’s cabinet: diverse but dogmatic,' noted The Guardian. The new team was criticized as elite.... These people aren’t working class, others pointed out. They don’t sufficiently support the rights of those seeking asylum in Britain or policies that address climate change...."

Writes Pamela Paul, in  "When Diversity Isn’t the Right Kind of Diversity" by  (NYT).

In his prescient 1991 book, 'Reflections of an Affirmative Action Baby,' the law professor Stephen Carter decried many of the assumptions around diversity nascent at that time — including the notion that racial or ethnic minorities are expected to think as a group, not as individuals. 

He bemoaned 'the idea that Black people who gain positions of authority or influence are vested with a special responsibility to articulate the presumed views of other people who are Black — in effect, to think and act and speak in a particular way, the Black way — and that there is something peculiar about Black people who insist on doing anything else.... 

In an earlier era, such sentiments might have been marked down as frankly racist. Now, however, they are almost a gospel for people who want to show their commitment to equality.' It seems odd to have to point out in 2022 that 'diverse' hires can be every bit as diverse on the inside as they are on the outside. For every Ketanji Brown Jackson, you’re liable to get a Clarence Thomas.

I'm going to read "It seems odd" as sarcasm — a way of saying it's exactly what we've come to expect. 

And, by the way, if we're really going to treat people as individuals, the concepts "every Ketanji Brown Jackson" and "a Clarence Thomas" would not make sense. There is one Ketanji Brown Jackson and one Clarence Thomas.

Yet we do realize that each of them was selected, in part, because they were "a" something. No one passes through the Supreme Court filter without possessing various general characteristics that the President wants. The person selected also has generic merit — whatever that is — but won after the elimination of a great many competitors who also had merit. 

Top-rated comment at the NYT:

Increasingly, diversity of viewpoint (the epistemic foundation of democracy), is being replaced or parasitized by conformity to “identity,” narrowly defined in terms of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, or partisan affiliation, as if we are no longer individuals but automatons. Kudos for speaking up. I suspect you’ll be cancelled shortly.

Thus articles "Liz Truss, the new Conservative prime minister, announced her cabinet, and for the first time ever, not a single member of the inner circle... is a white man...."
