 Usha definitely profited from DEI so why is she still around?[/quote]

Actually, Vance definitely benefitted from DEI.  [/quote]

DEI (TM) wasn’t invented until 2020, years after Vance got into Yale.

Not all programs that expand access to underrepresented groups are DEI (TM) and DEI (TM) did not reach all underrepresented groups. In particular, DEI (TM) favored a worldview where privilege was measured by skin color, gender, and status as a sexual minority and almost completely ignored the actual current driver of inequality in our society which is money, class, and what kind of family you were born into.

(I put the TMs to mean Trademark, because so many people on this board do not understand the difference between the program invented in 2020 vs. actual diversity, equity, and inclusion. Sorry if it’s lame.)[/quote]

LOL, you're lame. These programs were not invented in 2020, there was simply a deepening of the commitment by institutions to these values in the wake of George Floyd's death. [b]There isn't some "before" time and "after" time in this work. [/b]

Then why are you peeps so up in arms about DEI getting canceled?[/quote]

Because you dumba$$es don't know what DEI is. It's not individual hiring decisions and quotas. It's outreach, removing barriers, and training. Why are you so opposed to that? Unless you are some mediocre white person, or an ahole, or both, you shouldn't be. [/quote]

Outreach, removing barriers, and training are all fine and good.

But is the outreach effective if it reaches out to poor black girls but not poor white girls?

Is removing barriers effective if by allowing trans women to compete in female sports creates barriers for females who would otherwise compete?

Is the training effective if it is sanctimoniously carried out by bubble UMC white people and hyper focused on race, ignoring money and class.

There is nothing wrong with the spirit of DEI. Unfortunately the core messaging seemed to get lost and DEI(TM) emerged as a massive money making opportunity and grift.[/quote]
