How is everyone doing considering these anti-DEI initiatives? Feel like it’s creeping in client side and is making me spiral. Anyone else feeling the shift at work right now?

It is terrible and it makes me feel like shit.

However, if there is any bright side to this l, it is that maybe folks will finally realize that buying or not buying things based on shallow marketing campaigns is not, in fact, a substitute for actual activism or political participation.

It's not that these companies have stopped caring about DEI, it's that they never did in the first place. We have to stop pretending that the various kinds of "washing" matter--a corporation is a corporation and if they don't think our rights are going to make them a dollar they aren't going to care about our rights.

Not yet!

I don't have personal experience with DEI rollback but definitely seeing that with my energy/industrial clients that sustainability is no longer a priority / something they want to talk about, which makes me want to yell/cry, especially as the gov't rolls back the tiny bit of progress we'd made. We have such a narrow window to take drastic action that I'm stressed we're going to miss it and effectively destroy the planet.

Let’s not have pride this year that is all about rainbow colors. Remember those who have lost their lives during the AIDS crisis, and the years they were ignored by the government and couldn’t get healthcare to save their lives. Same as what is happening today - those who are not privileged don’t have equal resources, or even access to healthcare. That’s why equality should matter for everyone. It’s not just a party, it’s to show that we’re still here and we will not give up.

Does anyone know of a good therapist they could recommend in the LA area? Saw someone post something similar to this in the bowl the other day so I thought it wouldn’t hurt to ask. They don’t have to be LGBTQ+, but it would help if they have some experience in that area.
