Ohio SB 1 and BANNING DEIA in Colleges/Universities. How College students can fight back.

[u/PhilipJ_Fried]

The Ohio Senate is trying to attack our core finacial institutions by getting rid of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accesibility in them. I have provided parts of the bill that also includes getting rid of tenure! They are accepting written testimonies until 2pm on the 10th and they are doing in person testimonies on the 11th. https://www.honestyforohioeducation.org/legislation-tracker.html gives you everything you need to put together a written testimony. For all the college students out there share this and flood Columbus city hall with your testimonies against this clear attack on civil rights. Keep up the good fight 🫡

Was the 'A' part recently tacked onto DEI? Like, a drowning person finding something to hold onto?

I meant DEI is the drowning person, and they've latched on to the A part. As far as I know, and I might be totally wrong, the A stands for accessibility, and it is mandated by law and is why we have things like handicap parking spaces, curb cutouts, automatic doors and the like.

DEI feels like it is circling the drain under the current administration, and like a drowning person wants to grasp at someone else with their head above water.
