Maybe a better term is underrepresented women: native/black/latinx women who are like never quoted in anything I read.

Seriously, these aren't rhetorical questions. What do the voices in your stories look like?

A better question might be: when was the last time you used an underrepresented woman as a source? Any so far in 2016?

It turns out that if you're a person of color up for a job where the rest of candidates are all white, your chances of getting hired are 0%.

And if you're a woman for a job where the rest of candidates are all men, your chances of getting hired are also 0%. Zero. Zilch. Nada.

Because people unconsciously support the status quo, they'll never tender an offer to a sole candidate of color. Crazy, huh?

Actually, let me be more accurate: it's the candidates in the study had black names. Probably extends to poc, but I'm not positive.

But if there are TWO black candidates in the pool, and two white candidates in the pool, things even out. Black candidates have 50% chance.

Makes me think about all the times I encouraged a hiring committee to interview at least 1 poc in the last round. Should have been saying 2.
