    None of these programs will ever defeat racism because they’re based on further entrenching pseudo-scientific racial categories rather than actively dismantling the racist system of white privilege/supremacy.

    No politician has the brains or guts to actually end racism in USA. Likewise with patriarchy, homophobia, etc. Politicians exploit these issues rather than solve them.

    A great thought provoking piece for sure. I am certain that it will be revamped, but what we have to do as well is ensure that the racist and mysognistic parties (looking at you right wingers) don’t use their hate to guide how continue to ensure a fair place for all whether that be in the work place or just life in general.

    Failed attempts of ensuring these things does not mean we give up, we analyse, study and try another approach to make it better for all.

    I’ve got an idea: ban DEI. From now on, only support Inclusion, Equity and Diversity programs.

    Although to be fair, the problem is that humans suck once they clump together. We let groupthink and tribalism take over.
