[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread shows the problem- it is all or nothing and view points are too extreme.  DEI in the schools went too far.  That doesn't mean it needs to be eradicated.  Seven pages here love it or want it gone.  There can be a middle ground.  Support students learning about racism in American history classes through discussions of slavery and civil rights, but not in math or science class.  Have one or two books a year in English class present some of these issues, but not ALL of them.  Address systemic racism during assemblies a couple times a year, but not ALL of them.  Present some balance in addressing different minority groups.  Appreciate diversity in ALL its forms (religious, sexual/gender, learning differences, cultural, and racial).  Consider diversity in admissions and hiring without overlooking a clearly much better candidate that may be white.

The opinions on this thread are the problem.  The situation has become so polarized that it defeats the purpose of DEI and creates more anger and resentment.[/quote]

Well the problem is with the DEI proponents.  Once they start teaching it a little, they can’t stop themselves.  There is no end to it.  Eventually it turns full circle and they start attacking themselves like it did when BLM turned out to be Hamas enthusiasts.  It was nice to see DCPS quietly do away with BLM Week of Action this year, but it should never started in the first place.  Reading, writing, science and arithmetic please.  [/quote]
