This piece by @mehdirhasan.bsky.social almost perfectly captures what I think when I hear someone called a "DEI hire" or "woke hire". It's also code for other slurs as well, but I understand his focus on Blacks to hammer home the point.

My latest for the Guardian, in which I cite Lee Atwater, and bring lots of receipts.
Sorry, but it has to be said:

@lizzobeeating.bsky.social watched Tiny Desk with cast of the Six musical. I told my wife you would be great doing the Anne of Cleves song, Get Down. She bet me you've practiced it already and might have thrown in a flute solo. Is she right?
