I see the Richards Group making Black History month content and can’t help but roll my eyes. So over agencies making empty little videos showing diversity yet the faces behind the agency stay the same.

Well technically the face behind that agency changed...

Yea sure, the one guy left. The rest of the leadership still the same and the diversity there is non existent.

I bet if they did nothing people would be mad that they did nothing.

It’s almost like advertising, being the PR arm of capitalism, is inherently bad and devoid of any actual values outside of making money??

General question: Is there any room in corporate America for real, actionable DE&I discussions and initiatives? I've observed so many corporate versions become an advertising strategy (SM posts, diversity reports) without doing the actual work (increasing representation in senior leadership, salary analyses, having an effective reporting system for bias). Is this just how it is?

My wife and I are moving to Boston from overseas (we’re from Italy and we’ve recently won the diversity visa green card lottery).

We are looking to rent a 1BR starting in January, ideally for ~$3k/month. I’ll be working in the downtown area.

Do you recommend we go for a serviced/luxury apartment (e.g. Montaje, 345 Harrison, etc.) or hire a broker to get a “normal” apartment?

Any managed buildings recommendations within our budget? Also, what are some good brokers we could work with?

Thanks!
