What was said

"That I was actually reported once for not attending a D&I meeting. Um I I, you know, I wasn't there on the Zoom call during the pandemic, and I was reported to my boss saying, "He's not there. Why wasn't he there? What are you going to do about it?""

Oliver Malcolm, a publishing industry figure, recounts that during the pandemic he missed a D&I meeting on Zoom and says someone reported his absence to his boss, asking what would be done about it. He presents the incident as part of workplace tensions he associates with “identitarian” culture and with his involvement publishing authors he says were controversial.
