Nobody is calling anybody racist. However, everyone that is racist is definitely anti-DEBI for a lot is the same reasons people are throwing out here.

If you’re actually being called a racist it’s probably for a valid reason…
That's just what the grifters tell themselves to keep the grift going. Seems like some people will need some job training soon once the funding for this garbage dries up. A lot of DEI officers have already lost their jobs. The writing is on the wall.
I’m a parent of kids in private school. I’m glad our communities are getting a healthy dose of DEI. Private school parents probably need it more than anyone else. Just look at this thread.
How very fascist of you to dictate what the majority needs if they don't want it.
DP. Take a deep breath, freedom fighter! At the end of the day we’re talking about private school - no one has to go there!

NP. I think Latinx is on the way out because academics are finally realizing they're the only ones to use it. Most Latinos/Latinas have never heard the term or don't care.
Surveys show that most in the Latin American community oppose "Latinx." DEI coordinators are trying to impose language on the rest of us. Who elected them to make those decisions?
Language shifts that stick are the ones that occur over time and in a pretty democratic way.
PP here. Pretty sure "Latinx" started in academia, not with DEIB coordinators. Still, it was a top-down change that never resonated with the larger community.

As a teacher every school I have taught at in my 15+ years teaching that has had some kind of diversity/DEI/DEIJ/DEIB director (three schools) had varied programming that did not only or even mostly focus on black people.
Even in the mid to late 00s when the position was newer to many privates.
Also, don’t think that all black people are in love with DEI. I personally don’t enjoy teachers excitedly coming up to me during the work day to talk about their privilege and to point out how much I must have struggled to get where I am (because they can see I’m black). We don’t all like these discussions or appreciate our race being pointed out to us constantly either.
Still, I am very happy to put up with these minor inconveniences if it improves the environment for our students.

I have not seen a single assignment many of you claim has been included in curriculums. I would blow it off to trolls, but I've heard parents slip and admit that it will factor in their following school selection. They are so threatened by something they know nothing about.
I don't understand why.
