    1/3 of people I asked thought it was possible to be an expert by reading 3 books

    “In a 21st century media driven context it’s possible for people to become experts by reading 3 books. Maybe the poll was right ”

    Experts in the Diversity and Inclusion space are following this model

    “I think people are becoming Diversity experts by reading 3 books. Maybe it’s 5 books, maybe it’s 10 books. My point is.. it’s a light touch”

    Expertise indicates inequality in more ways than you think

    ““Expert” in this context means being a few steps ahead of the audience. Sometimes that’s ok”
