Equal Opportunities not Photo Opportunities: The politics of representation in the age of 'diversity'
To make sense of a moment in which Latino men and white women voted for Donald Trump, and the Conservative party is on its second non-white leader in a row - all at a time of escalating inequality and intense racial animus - we must interrogate what we want both from diversity and representation. These lessons go beyond electoral politics. The aim should be to change the way a system works not simply the way that it looks; so we must recognise that it is possible for organisations to appear different and still act the same.
