"Racism cannot die with bias still living." I love that Jenn Tardy isn't offering fluff. The Equity Edge makes it clear that bias isn't just an HR problem; it's a deeply embedded systemic one. This book unpacks how hiring and retention have been shaped by exclusion, why performative DEI doesn't work, and what it actually takes to create sustainable change. The best part? You won't finish this book still wondering what to do next. It's for people ready to challenge the status quo and get to work
