    White House even dissolved its Office of Diversity and Inclusion in late March.

    That’s a scooch misleading. The White House didn’t dissolve it. The Republican White Nationalists stripped it of its funding.

    “No, not like that.”

    Conservatives are ideologically opposed to education, science and medicine. Conservatives should have absolutely no influence on what is taught in places of higher education, especially medical schools.

      Murphy called DEI efforts “quackery” and said the bill would require schools to stop teaching topics such as intersectionality, colonization, and white supremacy

      Sounds like Murphy is a racism supporter - the primary effect of banning the teaching of history is guaranteeing it will be repeated, so this law’s apparent intent is encouraging white supremacy.

        I’ll never understand why people think pushing division will bring people together.

        If you want to end racism that is not the way. Start by not treating people differently based on race.

        Dei is as racist and divisive as you can find. Doesn’t mean you can’t help people who need it, just don’t do it by race.

          Teaching people about racism isn’t “pushing division”, and this law aims to ban that.
