I'm a "diverse" white male and I hate it way way more when I'm considered less valuable due to my appearance only to be considered useful to HR again because I check one of their quota checkboxes... Then if there was no discrimination to begin with. Commodifying identity is so gross it makes want to puke.
Realise a lot of the roadblocks are going to be things like office culture, language barriers, the lack of appeal of being a minority among a majority (ESPECIALLY if the majority is being discriminated against by HR)
Maybe encourage internal hires to recommend and mentor people similar to themselves? If your workplace is located in a "diverse" area than hire locally? Nepotism is less degrading than being subject to institutional discrimination at the hands of the resident HR bigot.
