Vicky Plaut’s landmark 2010 paper, Diversity science: Why and how difference makes a difference, is the subject of a special issue of the American Psychological Association journal Cultural Diversity and Ethnic Minority Psychology. The open-access Introduction is here. Behind the paywall are plaudits such as: 

• "Plaut’s breakthrough 2010 publication on diversity science—the study of meaningful human differences—set in motion a generative field of theory and research.” 
• "Plaut provided psychologists with language to legitimize research conducted on race-related processes.” 
• "In the midst of an ongoing global pandemic, we bear witness to the ways in which Communities of Color are disproportionately harmed. In her call for diversity science, Plaut . . . applied a sociocultural framework to describe processes in which people interpret and respond differently to structural realities, such as those underlying the racial disparities in COVID-19-related deaths.”
