Some of the African American kids are the most disappointed of all. One brilliant young woman from New York City announced in my office some years ago, “I should have gone to Howard.”

“Why?” I said.

“Because I am so tired of being stereotyped as black,” she said. “In New York nobody is anything. But here they want me to join the gospel choir. I can’t sing. And I hate this channeling of the black kids so the administration looks good.”

“Yeah,” I said. “It’s a problem. But don’t give up. Just be you.”

“Hmmm,” she said. “Hard at this place.”

“Tell me about it,” I said.

Do you want to put your life at risk under command of a diversity hire? Do you want to defend a country with this belief system?

Its taken 30-40 years to get to the point we are at in this mess - and it will take 30-40 years to get out.

Political/cultural trends are generational. Once someone’s brain has been set with particular beliefs and values, it takes a whopping crisis to get them out.

Speaking of society at large, there’s a generation of people educated in wokeness, and also a mob of government and corporate bureaucrats and their institutions supporting it with printed, fiat, government money and debt.

DEI is just another leftist Democrat scheme to implement QUOTAS. Quotas that have been ruled out by the USSC. They had to come up with DEI to disguise the Affirmative Action they concocted to skirt around the QUOTAs that they really are.

The title describes the objective of DEI, I.e., Divisiveness, Elitism and Indoctrination.

We need to create an Award and Ribbon for Excellence and Courage Under Fire (from the media) in DEI, so the Military can show it off on their chests.

Just think of the great conversations they could have in Homo Bars and Elite Social events over those Decorations!

Institutions which adopt DEI are assured the pursuit of mediocrity, divisiveness, low morale, psychological issues and loneliness. - guaranteed!!!

Up through WW2, we won every war with a segregated military. We have not won a war since.

"DIE destroys everything it is associated with."

That's right. Including whatever semblance of "social cohesion" that might exist today.

... African American, Hispanic, and Native American—were briefed separately to the committee not by a white member but by a minority Navy lieutenant. Briefings (a minute and forty seconds per applicant, no more) ran through a number of factors quite quickly and offered a recommendation that we had been told was appropriate:

“qualified” for USNA if grades A/B for white applicants (but not minorities, who needed only C grades), 600 score in each part of the SAT for white applicants (but about 550 for minorities who come to USNA without remediation), and Whole Person Multiple (points given for grades/tests, school leadership positions, and sports) of at least 55,000 for whites, no bottom for minorities.

Is there any sane person who thinks this is 'fair' or right or beneficial? When I was in the civil rights movement in the early 60's democrats in the South had different 'tests' for the right to vote. Black citizens were given tests no one could pass. It was wrong, it wasn't fair and results only benefit corrupt democrat racists. This is similar - it's unfair and racist and the victims are white. It's not the color - it's the crime. Democrat thugs were worth fighting back then with their dirty tricks and injustice and they're worth fighting today with their dirty tricks and injustice.

It's always democrats on the thug side...

Blacks make up 13% of population. Then:

“According to the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), a sector of the U.S. Department of Education, 84 percent of Black students lack proficiency in mathematics and 85 percent of Black students lack proficiency in reading skills.”

https://thehill.com/opinion/education/579750-many-of-americas-black-youths-cannot-read-or-do-math-and-that-imperils-us/

Based on these numbers, how in the heck are you going to get QUAILFIED people in representative numbers in high intelligence professions, much less the extreme over representation all companies seem to be striving for? It just doesn’t add up.

I love the old free USA, but it's gone for good.

It's not in any sense "our" military (except that we are forced pay for it). They are now the military of our enemies in Washington, and four years of Trump didn't change that.

I'm fine with them lacking cohesion.

The academies have turned into a farce. 4 years of hazing...upper classmen really get their rocks hazing..., chicken shit rules, DEI indocrintion, etc. Of course a lot of this crap has been going on for decades. Beyond hope now. Used to be ROTC, Officer Training School, Officer Candidate School taught you everything you needed to be a good, effective officer. The latter took 3-6 months, and 4 freaking years of BS at an academy is counter-productive in my view. Close ‘em down.
