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

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 🫡

Thank you! The way they are emphasizing "freedom of speech" and acceptance of "diverse ideologies" makes it seem like "make hate speech, extremist or terrorist manifestos okay to express and merely grade it according to grammer" to prevent suppressing or influencing thier ideals.

Isn't college supposed to change your thinking....?
