I learned something else about this publisher who said exclusivity and biases aren't real…
They are 3 partners, all white and only 1 a woman. They've published 10 books, every one of which was written by a man. Except for 1, which was written by the woman who told me biases aren't a real problem. And all but 2 of the 11 authors are also white.
The irony is killing me.
