I have to ask, @dorothyk98 what you mean when you say my appointment is"tokenism" (a word you use several times in this thread). I don't want to assume that you're saying that I only got the position because I'm transgender, so Im asking sincerely for clarification.https://twitter.com/dorothyk98/status/1192205657073692679 …

Replying to @SGTKristenC @dorothyk98
I don’t think your being trans has anything to do with the sense that you are not perceived as operating in good faith in re race and racism.

You can only take this question 2 ways: It's not in good faith in any way (as the track record may suggest already) or there is no reading in critical discussions on research in tokenism.

As @ISASaxonists has been explicitly clear multiple times that she was used as a token by the org., what is the point here other than just general bad faith or not actually understanding this term. Institutions/orgs. use folks as tokens. Qualifications have nothing to do with it.
