Jared Kushner was accepted into Harvard despite his grades being far worse than several of his classmates who had been decline admission to Harvard.
By an amazing coincidence just 2 weeks before Jared applied to Harvard, his father, ex-con Charles Kushner, pledged to donate $2.5M to the elite university.
A teacher at Jared's school, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said "How can we teach these kids right from wrong when they can see that cash is the only thing that really matters?"
Students who had worked much harder and achieved much better grades were heartbroken to lose their place to a far worse student simply because his Daddy had stacks of dodgy money.
Rich folk, buying unfair advantages for their spoilt and entitled offspring is a far more serious problem but the media or politicians seldom mention that. I wonder why?

@@aulvinduergard9952 that is true. but what we're seeing is that all of the programs created to 'level the playing field' are disappearing, when legacy or nepotism type programs/entitlements, are not.

Black people were marginalized and discriminated against in this country for CENTURIES and you can't right this injustice with just a couple decades of DEI and declare the issue is solved. Some white people are just afraid of losing their white privilege if minorities are represented fairly in positions of power in both the economic and political spheres. IMO a white man.
Why do you feel the need to take the reins of an entire race? You act like you know best for a culture you are not a part of, and what's worse is you're white. 60 years of democrat policies hasn't helped one bit, and the track record shows. If your policies worked, why the need for DEI. I have a great feeling there is gonna be a major shift this coming election. Not looking good for the democrats.Trump 2024!
Seems you have zero perspective of the scope of slavery, that it is still ongoing, and that it has affected all ethnicities throughout history.

@BillBarr4President and why are those reports needed because without them you can't track whether inequalities are happening but I'm sure yall would be OK with that

@@theodoreparson4321 If the most qualified and best-fit people are hired then yes, anyone with a brain would be OK with it.
@perryroberts4353 ok so why do yall think that a person of color can't be the most qualified or the best fit who gets hired and only is hired because of their skin color. You don't make that assumption when it comes to whites.the problem Is you have flipped what dei is and turned it into a excuse to rationalize a person of color who was more qualified than you getting a opportunity over you by saying it's because of their race.dei was created because you used to pass over qualified people of color because of their race.
When will the world acknowledge we're all one race, human, but with differences in culture.
There are only 3 races; mongoloid, negroid, caucasoid. Most of what people claim is about race is actually about ethnicity or nationality. Changing words won't stop ignorance.
Unfortunately some people think they are superior to others
When the race that makes up the majority stops feeling threatened by those other cultures and trying to pass laws that limit their chances at success and tries to make sure that they remain the majority.
It's about discrimination and keeping the majority of Americans on an income that can't support their current cost of living. Including retired teachers and seniors, regardless of their race, creed or color.

Racist much?
The commentators are right that DEI initiatives and practices have been in place for many years. Yet, all of a sudden, there's been a small, but very vocal group waging war on anything that even appears inclusive. The vitriol I received a couple of months ago was super intense when me and the other presenters described our appearance when introducing ourselves on a zoom call for those listening in who are blind or couldn't see us. Doing something so simple as to let participants on the call who may be blind know what each speaker looked like was enough to have someone give us such a scathing review, there was talk about stopping this practice from now on. Fortunately, that's not happening. This kind of nonsense needs to be ignored and not given a second of consideration, imo.
not such a small group. Let's not forget that California, the most progressive state in the Union, outlawed affirmative action because, like DEI, it's a racist and destructive practice. Get wrecked.
Voters should consider the fact that just as easily as the Republican controlled Supreme Court took away women's rights to choose, they also have the power to take any of the other Constitutional rights we all take for granted. VOTE BLUE for your own personal freedoms
Not only can't your typical opponent of DEI define it, they can't even spell it.
Am all for DEI as long as the person is qualified for the job.
That's just the thing, the people using DEI are the ones who set the qualifications, and are the ones who say their race, gender, and sexuality are what make a person 'qualified.'
@aulvinduergard9952 that's not true before dei people were being overlooked for jobs despite having the same qualifications because people has this mentality that only individuals who looked like them were as qualified and they would maybe hire one or two people of color just to make it look like they weren't discriminating but they were hiring as a very disproportionate rate which created a racial inequalities and I know I'm going to have someone says how because whites make up the majority they automatically would have majority of jobs but it's that racist in itself because you are basically saying that no matter how equal everyone is you are going to deny one race opportunities in order for your race to continue to get majority of the opportunities.
@@theodoreparson4321 Have you seen the 'qualifications' for acting jobs lately? You *literally* have to register and 'check boxes' regarding your Identity, Sexuality, Gender, and Disability -- and casting directors go by this when hiring actors, with preferences going to people who tick the most boxes, and the ones who tick the 'wrong' boxes (white, straight, and male) don't get hired unless they're already a big name. DEI is responsible for that.
@aulvinduergard9952 oh you mean like what you had to do on applications before dei but I guess it was fine when only whites got those opportunities and could benefit from them.
Check the data. Usually as or more qualified persons are able to fulfill their potential with DEI environment. Also education for others living with cultural myths and threats to their comfort of ignorance
Power And $$$$$
Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) are organizational frameworks which seek to promote the "fair" treatment and full participation of all people, particularly groups who have historically been underrepresented or subject to discrimination on the basis of identity or disability. The right-wing doesn't play well with others ..

Can you guys tell the actual truth: the issue of DEI comes out of Jim Crow
DEI is just common courtesy.
Exactly.
Not opposed to DEI, but she said if we didn't preserve it our greatest competitors will and leave use behind. I gotta throw the BS flag on that one. Our greatest competitors like who? China, currently genociding the Uyghurs? Russia, where if you aren't Slavic you're a peasant getting sent to the front lines as cannonfodder, or if you're LGBT you're probably in or headed for prison? Don't even mention the middle east. Frankly, I don't see any actual competitors to the US that aren't a thousand times worse on DEI issues that we are.
She talked a little too fast too. Felt like she was preaching rather than educating. Please take that as a helpful critique.

If anything I'm even more determined to get to the polls, not just in presidential elections but local elections as well.
Great report!
Great brainwashing
The real issue is that DEI will put under qualified folks in positions that will lower safety and quality.
But that's not how it works. DEI is designed to offer opportunities to those under-represented groups who ARE qualified but are not usually considered for positions. Most DEI candidates are actually hyper-qualified.
Consider this. That expanding-faced himbo Charlie Kirk recently posted a video criticizing Boeing for their DEI policies, in relation to the ongoing issue with the 737. He said that if he sees the plane is flown by a Black pilot, he "just hopes he's qualified." However, throughout aviation history, most airline pilots have been and are today white males. Hence, most airline disasters happen because of the error of white male pilots.

DEI, companies have found out, actually strengthens an organization. Different life experiences bring different points of view which brings better answers to problem solving. Companies, who initially embraced DEI for publicity, have found out that it is immensely beneficial all around. It has opened options, as stated, has improved problem solving, has brought new perspectives, and improved sales, profits, and efficiency. On a personnel level, it has opened the minds of many, exposed them to different cultures and perspectives, and has helped entire workforces open themselves to perspectives they never would have had when surrounded by homogenous co-workers. And yes, I am an old, cis, straight white man who has benefitted from inclusion starting in the 80s in the Navy.

My entire experience of DEI is watching a video at work and taking a quiz about how to include people who are different from you in discussions. That's it. And because I'm in a union, we get played to watch it.
I don't know anyone else's experiences with it, but it doesn't seem to deserve rampant hysteria, or to be thought of as a plot to demote white men. No one's demoted me!
Thank you for pointing that out.
I’m a white woman, so I can’t speak for white men. But I always found it hilarious to watch my male colleagues complain about inclusivity when I look around and see that it’s all white people and 90% men where we work.
The only guy I know who wasn’t employed and complained about not getting hired because he was “a white guy” also expected to have a much higher starting salary because he had a masters degree, so he refused to take an entry-level position because he felt he deserved to be paid more. He was a friend from university and it took him two years to find a job after getting his masters because his own hubris. He complained that his best friend, who was the son of immigrants, got a job before he did but his friend also took a job in another city with a much lower salary than he was willing to take. He complained that his girlfriend got a job before he did, but she took a job in another province and was working in another language (French). That was after she worked for 10 months in retail with an engineering degree. All of this was 20 years ago.

If you can't actually get ahead by playing to your talents and working harder, what incentive is there to strive at all?
Skin tone? All blood is alike spilled across the ground.
What you have in your pants, or whose you want to get into? Your business and your partner's, nobody else.
Languages and cultures? Imagine how boring it would be if everyone was the same!
The root of the problem is that humans LIKE having an in-group and feeling superior to an out-group, and surface differences that can be discerned at a glance or with a few words make those groups easy to form. That's one of the things I like the most about the text-based internet but don't engage at all with social media - when all you have to judge someone by is a learned trait like how well they write and whether they have a similar interest in movies or bird watching or whatever you like, it's a lot easier to ignore all that.

We need meritocracy
I live in possibly one of the most meritocratic nations on earth and to get there you need DEI, it is a constant. Without it you can't have a meritocracy especially in a nation that is so obviously a racist nation. That is what magatry is all about, WS.
I wholeheartedly agree that we need a meritocracy. We need to stop hiring people based on who their parents are, what school they went to, what neighbourhood they grew up in, and what their last name is. We need to hire people based on their experiences, qualifications, knowledge and what they bring.
Ya' know
Before you even get to whatever the substance is of piece
You equate any challenge to "DEI" as "Right-Wing Hysteria."
So we need "DEI" so that when we gather all of our diverse selves together--we start out by slicing off 40% of the room and instead of listening to this part of the room, some "super-judge" determines the segment to be "right-wing-hysterics". It seems to me that this foundation is actually something quite different than inclusion, equity or diversity. One might wonder if there is not some kind of lying "bait-and-switch" enterprise going on.
No matter what “” they “” do the progress of black people and our history won’t stop ever !! We will continue to overcome no matter the circumstances!!
I think the biggest problem is how DEI is enforced. I dont want everyday politics in my entertainment, but it gets forced upon me and i dont want that.
Not to mention it being forced into projects where it doesn't belong. If I'm watching a historical drama about England in the 11th Century, why is half the cast black? It'd be the same as watching Black Panther and having half the 'native Wakandans' be white. They just don't belong there.

SIMPLE! Let the best applicant win..............
The problem is, many people will hire a less-qualified white person over a more-qualified black person, because of conscious or unconscious prejudices. It's the same with women. Some people just think that the "best" applicant is the one who looks like them, and like the people they see most often on TV. A very primitive way of thinking.

Exactly, especially when they _define_ racism as 'prejudice plus power' and _define_ white people as the only ones *with* 'power' historically, meaning _only_ white people have ever been 'racist,' can only be 'racist,' and the only ones who _could ever be_ 'racist.' Therefore, when non-white people do it through DEI it's not 'racism' -- just ignore the fact that DEI is a 'system' used by people with 'power' that 'oppresses' people based on 'race,' thereby making it 'systemic racism' by their own definition.
And if you only care about money, you should care that a more diverse group of employees or board members tends to spend less, and make more money. Racism, like misogyny, is deciding to be stupid on purpose. Deliberately not knowing about half of everything in the world makes a person dumb.
guys, do not firget during the viet nam war many well to due white guys went to canada to eacape the jungles of nam also blacks and mexicans could not enter could not enter under any circumstance
Nope. Wrong.
How about starting with explaining how “Equality” (human rights issue) quietly morphed into “equity”? (A financial term) ?
Think we weren’t paying attention?
Hey troll. Didnt realize you can see all that from there in russia? Can you really see sarah palins house from there also?
@@DuaneHallinSD you embarrass only yourself. This Russia nonsense just makes you look lazy and unable to muster an intelligent retort to what the OP said.
Equity is a term that was adopted by Business and Finance not the other way around. Both words come from the root word Equal where equality is about people and their values while equity is about things and their values. You aren't paying attention at all.
@@StephenLewisful When you said, "You aren't paying attention at all", that was an uncalled-for, a gratuitous, snide comment. The question: what is the difference between "equality" and "equity"? is a fair one--and you gave the wrong answer!
Saying "All lives matter", for example, implies *EQUALITY* (= we all have equal rights). To say, "Black Lives Matter" is to demand *EQUITY* (= "Black Lives" require some extra focus/attention now, to make up for historical and current racial injustices). So, "equality" and "equity" are two different things. Full "equity" would require, ultimately, payment of reparations--"equality" would merely require aiming for a colorblind society.
My hypothesis is that the demand for equity is a negotiating position: The pro-equity DEI folks will start by demanding equity, but ultimately settle for true, genuine equality. Saying, "We want DEI" is better than saying, "We want reparations!"
@@reasonableobjectivist3271 Of course all lives matter. But in context, black people are saying that black lives have historically not been treated as if they matter, whereas in reality they do matter. You say a lot of words, but you don't seem to understand what they mean.
Who do you want doing your child's brain surgery? The most qualified, most capable surgeon regardless of skin color, background, ect. Or the less qualified, less capable DEI hire that checks a box or two?
If you listened to the video, you might have learned what has been shown to be true over and over: Black people generally have MORE qualifications than white people, because they have to work harder to get to the same level. That's why black pilots are actually less likely to crash a plane than white pilots.
Do you know that if you’re going into surgery you are more likely to have better outcomes and less likely to have complications if you have a female surgeon? Yet the anti-DEI crowd will tell you that a female surgeon is less qualified because she’s not a man. She is just as qualified as her male counterpart, AND statistics show has better outcomes and less complications than her male counterpart. The fact that she ticks a box in the eyes of culture Warriors makes her suddenly less qualified.
Why do yall contradict yourselves when you say this because you will say the most qualified person regardless of color but than you say the dei person which is usually someone of color is less qualified so you already have this mentality like a person of color is less qualified whether they are a dei hire or not

I work in the mental heath field and every job I've ever had over the last 25 years had mandatory diversity training which is not only necessary but vital in working with all the varied populations we work with. I struggle to understand why its such an issue as I feel having that training has led me to be a better therapist!
It blows my mind that people who are against this training for healthcare providers, whether it’s mental health or medical. The impact on patient/clients is profound. I feel those people who fight against diversity training in healthcare are particularly cruel.
Combating prior racism with new racism is still racism lol.

If you're saying dei is not a problem. Truthfully it is a problem
If the Activists are saying it's not a problem, it means they've been found out and are scared.

You should. Like these people just said, people of color have to work twice as hard so they come out of school with a better skill set than people who are born into privilege. Look at basketball. It is often assumed that black athletes are better than white ones. Today's young people are way more inclusive of each other and so this problem will go away but we still have dinosaurs like you slowing down our progress. It's why the Right is so upset. You're losing the Anglo stranglehold in our country and around the globe.
