That depends on your definition of diversity though because the warehouse that voted not to unionize was anything but diverse:
The union estimated that 85 percent of the workers at the Bessemer warehouse were Black.
On the other hand, the union ran on a whole boatload of diversity nonsense which apparently wasn't particularly popular among the workers. So in a way diversity prevented unionization, except it was the union's own fault.
Honestly, a well run union would do extremely well nowadays. Imagine a union that could promise training courses, health care savings account in addition to company standards, free legal services up to a certain point, and serve as a recruiting & certification mechanism for companies looking for work. Imagine if you union looked for jobs for you, even in multiple industries, and would pay moving expenses.
The problem is that their greedly leftist thugs that don't like working.
You described a legitimate unionization. What they tried to put together is closer to a sharing of grievances, little more than an agreement to stop working immediately at the first sign of an employer having standards. Pushing heavy BLM affiliation is counterproductive to gaining anything; it's like Antifa starting a neighborhood cleanup initiative. Would anyone trust it, and how many self-proclaimed true believers would even show up to do the part that involves anything resembling work?

Either way, the oligarchs' promotion of 'diversity' paid dividends.

Turns out grievance mongering is both easier and more profitable over actually helping someone.
So basically their platform was "we want a union because we're black" but had nothing else of any substance, benefit, or plan to offer?
Sounds like a perfect example of modern democracy in action.
Unionize
Collect union dues
?????
Yeah, basically.

There is only one definition: nonwhites in white nations. Any other definition is operationally meaningless.
