"Equity" has done a 180-degree turn. I'm old enough to remember when the goal of racial equality was for candidates to be hired based on their qualifications and performance, without regard for race, color, or ethnicity. Now that that hasn't yielded the desired (by the SJWs) result, they've done an about face and declared that "meritocracy" (i.e. hiring on the basis of qualifications and performance without regard for race, color, or ethnicity) is racist.
Clown world.
