Maybe this person didn’t, and it is not appropriate to hold the head of diversity title.

But if they’re doing everything right, and do represent diverse workforce, then is “not having had anti-Semitic views 14 years ago” a job requirement?

What do the Jewish/POC colleagues have to say about the quality of their workplace?

I definitely wouldn't want to work at Google with this guy in management. Sorry, but I'm just not interested in having my "insatiable appetite for war" touted as an asset to a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace.
