Description
Identity Capitalists: The Powerful Insiders who Exploit Diversity to Maintain Inequality by Nancy Leong
Nancy Leong examines how those in power use diversity to their advantage, and what this means for the rest of us. She identifies a system where social and economic value is extracted from people of color, women, LGBTQ individuals, and others.
Leong uncovers the rules governing this "identity marketplace" and reveals how it affects institutions such as law, education, workplaces, and media. Her book provides tools to recognize and mitigate exploitation, highlighting the tension between playing along with diversity or protesting against its use by others.
