I apologize to anyone who was not aware of the history behind affirmative action and was therefore misled by my tweet into thinking this was just something we randomly started doing for no reason.

It’s weird to have this conversation without at least acknowledging that the reason employers started actively trying to hire people other than white men is bc left to their own devices, organizations were hiring exclusively white men. And it wasn’t bc they were more qualified.
