new movie on racism, dei...
Though black females are only six percent of the population, they obtained about 55 percent of top diversity officer roles among the country’s top 50 colleges and universities. The Fix compiled its list using the U.S. News and World Report rankings of national universities.
While black Americans are only 13 percent of the population, they were 80 percent of the highest-ranking diversity officials. Meanwhile, Latinos were only six percent, despite being 19 percent of the population. Asians were only two percent, despite being seven percent of the U.S. White people did not fare well, also only getting about two percent of the top roles.
Delta's top DEI officer sparks fury by canning 'ladies and gentlemen' announcement at departures' gates
Delta Air Lines' top Diversity, Equity, Inclusion (DEI) officer has sparked fury after suggesting to ban the term 'ladies and gentlemen' in departure gates announcements.
Keyra Lynn Johnson, Delta's Chief Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Social Impact Officer, called for the end of the use of the polite greeting, questioning whether it was 'gender inclusive' enough.
The bizarre statement was first made during a panel discussion in February 2021 with other DEI members - and Johnson still sits at the helm of the company's DEI department today.

I tried to read the article. All it had were quotes, without context, and I was unable to understand what/why/how Nair was tying DEI or "queer theory" to nuclear weapon policy.Biden has been good at putting absolute nut jobs in power at the federal level

This is the crux of her point:here is the article she wrote if you want to lose 20 minutes of your life you can't get back
Queering nuclear weapons: How LGBTQ+ inclusion strengthens security and reshapes disarmament
Discrimination against queer people can undermine nuclear security and increase nuclear risk. Using queer theory can help change how experts and the public think about nuclear weapons.thebulletin.org
What she’s advocating sounds like a recipe for disaster.This is the crux of her point:
Studies in psychology and behavioral science show that diverse teams examine assumptions and evidence more carefully, make fewer errors, discuss issues more constructively, and better exchange new ideas and knowledge.
A reasonable position. The unknown for me is this, do those psychology and behavioral science studies translate to military decisions?
(That's not a Q for you to answer, it's about me wondering aloud)

anything can be a slur or be offensive. society only "accepts" that some things are slur based on some arbitrary lines. I don't even think the argument was that "white" is a slur, but its usage indicates some very heavy bias against people of a certain skin color.“White” isn’t a slur lol

like if you replaced white in her tweets with black, it would 100% be considered racist. But because she is going after white people, its ok?
