I think the only way forward is to have a “sub rosa” diversity hire philosophy that is widespread without an “official” one that has the cruel effects on your Black friend.

I have opposed “official” affirmative action programs for decades precisely because I put myself in the shoes of those people who worked their asses off deservedly to get ahead only to be written off as “diversity hires.” I can think of nothing crueler to have that hanging over you.
