Briefly

The article examines the conservative campaign against diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs, suggesting that the ultimate aim is to revert to a form of racial segregation. It highlights the hypocrisy of blaming tragic events on DEI hiring practices, as articulated by figures such as Elon Musk. A growing number of corporations and institutions are retreating from their DEI commitments, prompted by political pressures in several states. The narrative laid out implies that this is a coordinated effort to dismantle systems that promote diversity and inclusion within American society.
The ongoing campaign against DEI programmes aims to reverse advances in diversity, equity, and inclusion, promoting a potential return to quasi-legal racial segregation.
