Let’s unpack this DEI stuff. I don’t believe he is implying organic diversity is a bad thing. On the contrary, I think we can all agree that it’s the right thing. But forced diversity is controversial for many and definitely creates division. Equity is a farce and we all know it. Equality is what we should be striving for. And if you don’t know the difference between equity and equality, it comes down to one thing:Outcome. Finally, Inclusion is a moving target. Where does someone draw the line in the workplace?? (And I’m talking on a professional level, not on a personal level). Do we include everybody in the workforce?? Even those who can’t do the job?? So I agree with the previous poster in that this DEI stuff should be kept out of ALPA. The fact that they created a DEI committee is disturbing to me.
