Wonderful! I lost my job for continuing to push back on DEI. My questions were:

What data supports the efficacy of these programs? What evidence of anti-black and racist systems are we going off of? Isn't a Land acknowledgement cultural appropriation? Why are we training on Implicit Bias when the IAT is not an effective tool and there is no proof of IB? What is AntiRacist about people telling me they know who I am based on my sex, race, and able-ness?

I said no to the KenDiAngelOkun paradigm and was forced out. Tema Okun is the author of White Supremacy Culture, It's Characteristics and its Antidotes. Terrible work. It claims.'Either, Or thinking' is White Supremacy. The same people using this say, you are 'either racist or antiracist, an oppressor or the oppressed' So the people who implement DEI have defined their own work as racist and white supremacist. So incomprehensible.

Awful that you lost your job over it. I hope you’re doing okay.

These two are the new sharpton and Jackson but with far greater arrogance and Ray cis ism. They are to intelligence what Luigi mangoni is to pacifism. Like all nonsense based on a need to grift, this dei silliness will soon go the way of the 1990 Consultancy Class that damn near ruined business with outsiders being paid fortunes to lead meetings on writing mission statements and other useless nonsense.
