“The Rise & Fall of DEI”
You’ve read the headlines – Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs have come under attack in boardrooms, state legislatures and college campuses across the country.
DEI programs are discriminatory and attempt to solve racial discrimination by disadvantaging other groups, particularly White Americans.
Kayla Savage, OU Student, and one of the plaintiffs who initiated a class-action lawsuit filed in federal court accusing the University of Oklahoma of basing scholarship aid on race, violating the constitutional rights of numerous students in the process. The class-action lawsuit seeks damages for impacted students, alleging OU violated the students’ rights under the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
