‘Silence is complicity’ — universities must fight the anti-DEI crackdown
- Diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives expanded after George Floyd's murder in 2020, but are now facing backlash, with political and ideological attacks leading to a decline in enrollment for Black and Hispanic students at selective colleges due to the Supreme Court striking down affirmative action.
- Systemic inequities in education still persist, disadvantaging students based on various factors such as race and socioeconomic status, despite DEI initiatives aiming to address these disparities.
- Research shows that teacher quality, influenced by DEI initiatives, strongly affects student achievement, particularly in schools serving economically disadvantaged communities.
- Current attacks on DEI are framed as threats to free speech and are seen as attempts to ignore the complexities of American history, according to educators advocating for fairness and understanding.
