DEI is not illegal, racist or immoral. We need to stand up to stop DEI being torn out of our culture. We're not asking for unqualified people to be given positions, just when you're picking from a pool of qualified people don't always pick the white male, give other people a chance.
I don't think opposing positive outcomes is quite the flex you imagine it to be, but the Rights' aversion to sensible business policy really does explain the tailspinning economy devoid of both positive outcomes and opportunities since January.
We don't have a quantitative system that puts us in order by points for jobs. There are a number of people who are qualified and who gets picked is up to the people above them. If they always pick people like themselves, white males, then other groups never have a chance. That is what DEI is about.
no choice but to move academic study to the institutions abroad that offer American studies courses. a true examination of the past, off American soil is preferable than a manipulated whitewashed narrative created by intimidation. then it can return when freedom of thought and speech are restored.
