What You Don't Know About DEI Will Shock You

Learn the shocking truth about DEI and its impact on your school and workplace in this eye-opening video. Part 1 of a series on DEI, affirmative action, and the recent rollbacks affecting diversity and inclusion initiatives.

In this video, I explore the controversial topic of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) and its impact on schools and workplaces. Is DEI destroying the very fabric of our education system and organizational culture, or is it a necessary step toward creating a more inclusive and equitable environment? From DEI's inception to Civil Rights movement to modern-day DEI rollbacks, I discuss the historical context and cultural implications of DEI on our society.
