Description

Many of the diversity, equity and inclusion programs that took off after the murder of George Floyd five years ago are ending. President Trump has called them illegal, and his Justice Department has vowed to investigate private sector companies that it deems have discriminatory DEI programs. Will the second Trump term end the era of DEI?


Charlotte Howard hosts with Adam O’Neal and Idrees Kahloon.
