I'm an ORM, an American citizen, and a 2nd generation immigrant (parents from India). Should I write a diversity statement? Or is a DS not necessary?

It's not at all necessary and probably won't make much difference, but if you think this part of your background has impacted your life in an interesting way and you can do a good job articulating how, you may as well write one. It could help you a little?
