“This exercise is not meant to embarrass or penalize anyone. It’s to learn from our own work and create awareness of what we need to do,” McGrory wrote in the memo. “We’ll figure out a meaningful way to share the broader results.”

Time to renew the affirmative action programs beyond the level we’re already operating at, eh Comrade?

Boston is only about 25% black.

What happens to the Democrat Party if white Democrats, all over America, start to decide that Democrats, and the Left in general, being in power is going to be detrimental to the lives of themselves and their families?

How is this even legal? Can’t the EEOC step in?

LOL. So all the senior staff at the BG and editors will be lilly white and all the incoming interns and consequently the hires are going to be “POC”.

That will work.

The people who get the Globe barely know how to read. So it won’t matter if it’s in English or whatever the interns speak.

I keep hearing that European Americans have white privilege. Where is this mythical beast?

viewing thru a ‘racial lens’...

if black experts were referred to more then 12% of the time, they would be over represented.

It will get worse. Anything and everything unless whites stand up for themselves.

I remember in the early seventies when my class of recent college grads was “accidentally” told by an HR staffer that none of us would get promoted until the black men and women were taken care of. So we all just took our white privilege and left for other endeavors. We all did quite well.

It’s like Comrade Beria said, “Show me the man and I’ll find you the crime.” If you look through a “racial lens” you will find the crime.

Should lose whatever special Constitutional privileges it currently enjoys.

Well, I doubt he remembers a BG intern by the name of Jayson Blair.

And how well the BG help train him in the best journalistic practices...
