"There is no DEI without justice. Racial Justice at Work brings the J in DEIJ to life, giving organizations a road map to justice-centered action. We have not succeeded at dismantling systems that perpetuate harm and exclude non-white groups. Many organizational DEI efforts fail because they are too tactical and focus on "fixing" marginalized communities rather than reworking the systems that uphold inequity. A component is missing from the diversity, equity, and inclusion equation-justice. Justice as an orientation focuses on repairing broken systems, acknowledging harm, and implementing deliberate processes and practices that produce equity and shift power. Justice work diverges from traditional metrics-driven DEI work and requires a new approach to thought and action to effectively dismantle power structures. DEIJ pioneer Mary-Frances Winters seeks to provide understanding and guidance to organizations committed to doing the work properly. With additional chapters written by the Winters Group's core team and strategic partners, this book shares relevant theory and practical remedies to achieve equitable workplaces and features advice on how to ditch neutrality, practice restorative dialogue, amplify anti-racist practices, and more. By taking a justice perspective, Racial Justice at Work will help readers to both achieve equity and sustain it"--

A review essay on a book by Rachel F. Moran, Interracial Intimacy: The Regulation of Race and Romance (Chicago: U Chicago Press, 2001).

AbstractIn the realm of electoral politics, a growing number of women, African Americans, and Latinos now serve at the highest levels of government. For many Americans, the bipartisan presence of representatives who are people of color and/or women is proof that we live in a "post-feminist" and "postracial" era in which institutions are now fundamentally fair and accessible. Rather than assuming that racial presence is synonymous with racial justice, this essay turns to aesthetic theory to advocate for a new understanding of presence—not as proof that racial or gender justice has been achieved but as a kind of beauty that is experienced as a form of visible certitude. Drawing on the work of Hannah Pitkin, alongside writings on descriptive representation for Latinos and African Americans, this essay stresses the importance of judgment, arguing that on questions of social justice, a racially diverse elite is simultaneously ethically valuableandpolitically indeterminate.

We at Organization are committed to "Black Lives Matter," three simple words that represent a complex and powerful set of truths about the ongoing struggles of the Black community against the structural interests that beset them. We share many of the values that guide this global social movement. As a journal, we pledge to carry the ethical and political momentum generated by this mobilization for justice forward in the organization studies community and beyond. This brief note is both a reminder of what we have stood for as critical scholars since our early days, and an admission that we have not done nearly enough. Most importantly, it is a commitment to foregrounding and addressing anti-Black racism in our analyses, our actions, and our institutions.
