While you highlight it, please note is the product of local journalism, which has been carrying a lot of the burden in an environment where national outlets simply can't cover everything everywhere all at once. Support your local journalists!

It’s really a bit too nauseating to watch cabinet confirmation hearings for people who are not at all qualified while also watching “DEI” blamed as “hiring people without qualifications.”

At school, I told a colleague that I will not give in to the chaos. They want us to be overwhelmed. They want us to be discouraged. They want us to feel hopeless. I will NOT. I will continue to advocate for respect, kindness, diversity, and community. I am stronger with others.

Reporters: Please stop calling things DEI that are not DEI. This is only cementing the propaganda being used to legitimize the dismantling of all types of initiatives that are not DEI as well as legitimize efforts to end civil rights enforcement. Be specific with your language. Be accurate.
