Thank god my employer doesn't fire people for slamming diversity efforts. Shockingly, I take issue with hiring and promoting under qualified candidates simply based on race and gender.
I think diversity of background, knowledge and experience can be valuable. However, I don't think just because you are not a white male you've necessarily gained any sort of knowledge or experience that can be valuable in the profession.
This may surprise some people, but not all white males grow up with the same experiences.
