Yes, DEI is the problem. When I see the word equity, I know the rot is still in the concept. We can't all be 5'10", blonde, and beautiful. Nor should we all be. Equality = opportunity to be your best

Equity = outcome

Shall I demand to have my legs stretched and hair dyed forever to be like previous example? No. And, I shouldn't and don't want to do that, either.

If you really want to make a difference and unearth what goes on in our educational systems and how teachers and students are treated by ultra-woke administrators and/or colleagues, then dive into Fresno Unified, Central Unified and Clovis Unified of Central California. A great case is Wawona Middle School in FUSD where my friends teach and chronic campus violence and threats of violence are disregarded. In one of a long list of examples is a kid with a horrific record of bad behavior came to class and said; “I’m gonna shoot every mother fucker here.” The teacher called campus security to have him removed. It was thought that student would be expelled. He wasn’t even suspended. When my buddy earnestly inquired as to why this threat, and other threats, were not only ignored but not even recorded by the administration, they replied; “He didn’t mean it.” And; “He comes from a bad background at home.” Followed, as usual, by excuses for ANY bad or dangerous behavior by ANY student and particularly if they are a minority.
