Hiring Revolution: A Guide to Disrupt Racism and Sexism in Hiring (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781634894654)

If people just hired based on talent, their teams wouldn't be homogenous. Hiring Revolution confronts this with truth-telling that will no longer allow industries to hide behind platitudes. The actions are clear. It's time to do them.

--Melanie G. S. Walby, design director of Pollen
