This is virtue signaling at it's best. Our company doesn't even have an official DEI team yet, but even I know better than to try and pull something like this. I wonder what USC's demographics are.

Tilting at windmills here. They're just inventing semantic issues to fight because addressing the actual systemic problems is hard (and will probably impact their bottom line).

This is exactly the sort of thing I don't want to happen where I work, which is why I joined the DEI committee at my job. This happens when the person who should be in the room who you think you're making these decisions on their behalf, isn't. It is exactly why DEI exists, to PREVENT this. What a shame, at an institute of "higher education" smh.

I’m learning that getting good work across the finish line sometimes requires comfort with being annoying. Pushing back on internal feedback, speaking up when a potential solution comes to mind even if it’s beyond the deadline, etc… Aside from being polite in wording and tone, and expressing genuine thanks and appreciation, is there other advice for how to succeed when you have to be annoying, or to know when not to be and just accept the status quo?

Additional Posts in Diversity & Inclusion

I'm in desperate need of tips to get genuine buy in from our predominantly white, male senior leadership to create a more inclusive environment. As is often the case, middle management and below is very diverse and then at Director+ it gets much more homogeneous. So far any real initiatives get shot down in favor of performative actions to post on SM. Is this just how it is, or can we try something different?

In honor of National Voter Registration Day, The New Yorker released the transcript of a previously unpublished interview with James Baldwin, who gave a first-hand account of "Freedom Day 1963," a Black voter-registration drive in Selma, Alabama. Baldwin's descriptions from that day are so vivid and detailed that you can feel the fear and anger of the event. If you have a couple of minutes, I highly recommend you read it.

Now that I know I’m not “crazy” for thinking this, how should I approach this?

Definitely took the wrong job. I was offered a seriously competitive salary and great benefits to work at a well funded startup, which is great!

Every single suggestion I've made has been shut down and I've been ghosted for several meetings with the CEO. What should I do? Just leave?
