TBH, as a poor white kid from coal country, DEI based scholarships were quite unfair to me. Busting my ass to survive while these kids who were already better off than me from the start got a free ride. Nonsense.
I don't have a great answer, but the extreme implementations of these programs and now the extreme removal of them are both wrong.
But that should come under equity.
There should be funding to help you.
I think it's fine to be criticise badly implemented DEI.
It should, but America hates poor people. I absolutely feel like this is intentional to deepen the divides, to pit one person against another so we're so busy with fighting each other they can pick all of our pockets without being noticed.
You just figured out what Left v Right is all about.
