Is DEI Dead?: Unpacking the Backlash, the History, and What's Really at Stake

The KYRC Podcast crew breaks down the real story behind diversity, equity, and inclusion in America, from the GI Bill and Social Security to today's executive orders gutting DEI programs. Discover how "anticipatory compliance" is reshaping museums, corporations, and federal agencies, why Costco stood firm while Target faced boycotts, and how cuts are pushing Black women out of the workforce. We expose the hidden costs of "colorblind" policies and explain why intentional inclusion remains a legal right and a cultural necessity worth defending.
