The DEI Debate: Age, Policies, and Political Reactions

This chapter explores the varying perceptions of age and mental acuity among political figures like Joe Biden and Chuck Grassley, while reflecting on Trump's inauguration and the implications of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) strategies in contemporary governance. It critiques the seeming failures of DEI initiatives in both corporate and federal settings, highlighting a growing public discontent and fatigue with these policies. The discussion also addresses the cultural shifts following significant events, such as the murder of George Floyd, questioning the impact of racial equity projects and the move toward self-segregation.
