This Fourth of July, I am taking a moment to reflect. Things are hard right now. They are probably going to get worse before they get better.
But I love our country — and when you love something, you fight for it. Together, we will continue to fight for the ideals of our nation.
Looks like you finally understand what DEI actually means.
Despite how the right has hijacked its definition, the intent of DEI is to give people who have been historically and systematically barred from competing/advancing, an opportunity. That means people of color, women, the disabled, etc — people who are QUALIFIED, but ignored.
Jackie Robinson was good enough to play in MLB on his own merit, but he needed the opportunity. Let that sink in. And then let it sink in again.
DEI is not giving people “unearned privilege.” It’s just the narrative y’all like to use to justify inequity.
