Diversity criticism neutrality

Hey! It looks like this section lacks some neutrality, although I haven't edited Wikipedia in a while, so I don't have a current grasp of the neutrality policy:

The UTC accepts documents from any organization or individual, whether they are members of the Unicode Consortium or not.[1][2] The UTC holds its meetings behind closed doors, and its voting members are overwhelmingly white, American, and male.[3] As of July 2020, the UTC rules on both emoji and script proposals at the same meeting.

This is a super important criticism to bring up, but it's pretty jarring in context with the article, surrounded by very neutral statements.

@Jamesjpk: I believe I wrote the sentence but am not sure. However, this is not criticism. UTC meetings are closed to the public. The voting members are overwhelmingly white, American, and male — as are the non-voting participants. I am unsure why you think this is non-neutral.
