As promised, here is a thread about #DiversityStatements for scholars on the job market based on a conversation Sarah Pierce Taylor and I had last week at @UChiDivinity and my experience participating in a ton of searches at @Northeastern which takes DEI VERY seriously:
1/When I went first on the market a LOOOOONG time ago, diversity statements were not a thing, and unfortunately a lot of senior faculty who mentor doctoral students have zero experience writing them, so folks often feel on their own trying to figure them out.
2/But higher ed has changed (thank GOD!) so now many jobs require a some sort of statement of commitment to DEI/or will ask an interview question about this topic.
