Genuine curiosity here- where did you get your definition of DEI?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Honestly it’s easy to get that definition of DEI when it is poorly explained and/or poorly understood.

Plenty of people particularly on the right believe all the explanatory reasoning behind DEI is thinly-veiled “reverse racism”.

I understand that many people have an incorrect understanding of DEI (and at times have had experience with it being incorrectly applied). I was actually hoping to learn where this particular person learned their viewpoint to have a conversation.
