When teams struggle with the dynamics after diversity hiring

Our department hired two new people this year specifically to increase diversity, and now the rest of the team acts like every decision they make or opinion they have is because of their identity rather than their expertise. The new hires are starting to withdraw from meetings and I can see them questioning whether they belong here, but no one wants to acknowledge what's happening.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A group that wanted to become more inclusive is discovering that inclusion requires them to examine assumptions they didn't know they held.
