Really? Less than 5% of staff are non-white and you're arguing he needs to explain what "diversity" is?

Come on. At under 5% basically ANYTHING ELSE is diversity.

Also, he does touch on this in the article. He says that Twitter relies heavily on a few schools for hiring so even if they get 'diverse' candidates from those schools they've still had a very similar experience compared to people from geographically diverse schools. That alone would add one form of diversity. He said he's seen this resulting in group think, and I can believe that.

But really? You want people to define diversity in this situation? That seems like a 'no true scotsman' setup to me.

about 5% of staff are non-white, for a definition of white that includes hispanic and asian people.

Cause not-black => white isn't a racist statement.

44% are non-white. There's a table with the numbers right in the article.
