It all comes down to the hiring pool. Compare the following two scenarios:
1. You're in a minority group (relative to the hiring pool), and your hiring decisions are skewed towards hiring other members of the same minority group (relative to the hiring pool)

Take, for example, a business in a majority black neighborhood preferentially hiring white people. Seems bad. I think I prefer the "historically marginalized" justification more, although I think that has its own problems.
