Bar Associations and the ABA are well-infected with PCism.

I have no problem with encouraging "diversity", meaning simply that every lawyer in a firm, business or government agency doesn't need to look, act or share the identical background.

Different POVs can be helpful. Diverse backgrounds promote different focuses and interests.

What I object to is elevating the notion of diversity over merit.
