This seems preferable to being systematically denied opportunities, but I believe her argued it in his (one of his?) books, which I most definitely did not read.

I think this is it. It’s “why” Roshunda, the very bright clerk for a judge in one of my cases, who joined my big law, was regulated to walking to court to file documents by the GPs in the lit group. She wasn’t hired because she was capable and a former law clerk, she was only there as the firm wanted diversity. I guess the theory goes you need to play into old fucks’ biases.
