If diversity was beneficial there would be no need for diversity training. People would embrace diversity without being forced into it if it was beneficial. They wouldn't need some official with the power to fire them ordering them to celebrate diversity, or lose their job.

Diversity has become a state religion in America and we're expected to worship it. If we notice all the negatives, we're to overlook them as some sort of necessary religious pennance.

Meanwhile, my open challenge here stands. Can anyone tell me how Japan would benefit if it imported 25 million Arabs, Somalis, and Mexicans? That would certainly diversify the country, so if diversity is a strength I'd like to hear all the glorious benefits Japan would reap with those additional 25 million diversity bonus points living there.

My challenge isn’t so specific.

I just ask for one peer-reviewed study showing ANY measurable benefit of a “diverse” group over a homogeneous group in any (positive) goal.

I couldn’t agree more. When we were being forced to take diversity training at the company in Baton Rouge I worked for an Iranian engineer made the mistake of pointing out we were a diverse group since we came from many difference engineering schools with different areas of expertise. The instructor was incensed. The Iranian engineer ended up getting a special private training session.

My experience is diversity is a cover to justifying hiring less talented candidates instead of more qualified white males.
