Abstract | The justification for diversity training programs is rooted in two fundamental sources. The first are trendy theories of white wickedness/minority victimhood that thrive in academia--e.g., "implicit bias," "hidden racism," "aversive racism," "reasonable racism," "benign bigotry," "symbolic racism," "unconscious bias," "everyday bias," and "silent racism,"--to name only a few. The second is the frustration of civil rights groups over inequities within education, employment inequalities, and workplace discrimination. After examining the results of diversity training and related approaches during many decades in academia, reviewing relevant literature and actively participating in many decades of fieldwork in schools and other public bureaucracies, Craig Frisby and Robert Maranto argue that diversity programs usually do not work, and they often result in negative unintended consequences that are far worse than the problems that such programs were originally designed to address.
