Perspective: The Silver Lining of Trump's DEI Crackdown

Ayofemi Kirby Season 1 Episode 2

In this episode, we tackle Trump’s proposed crackdown on DEI programs—a move that’s sparking heated debate for its impact on workplace culture and marginalized communities. We discuss the pitfalls of superficial “box-checking” approaches to diversity, explore how organizations might respond if forced to rethink their commitments, and examine whether this brash policy could unintentionally trigger more authentic, lasting inclusion.
