    Republicans’ motivations for getting rid of DEI certainly aren’t mine. Believe it or not, there are people out there who disagree with the DEI approach but still agree that systemic racism/sexism in society is a problem that needs addressing. Don’t lump me in with the GOP.

      So systemic racism still effects opportunities of minoritiy communities up to today and you understand that.

      How do we counteract this systemic racism without systemic changes? You want to change things without changing anything. Making people educated doesn’t fix racism.

      What if I told you that DEI was the result of an educated society making the most effective changes to the system to counteract systemic racism?
