DEI is literally the definition of racism. Disney being sued by Elon Musk

National MS Society. Did anyone read how the National MS Society just used its DEI program to kick out and exclude a 90 year old disabled woman, who had been a volunteer for 60 years, in the name of being inclusive?

Based on the information in this New York Post report, it seems likely an official with the National MS Society did unjustly railroad out the 90-year-old volunteer. Nothing this describes about her communication was offensive. I hope the society reaches out to her gracefully and apologetically and they can reconcile.

But this also seems like the sort of SNAFU that happens with or without "DEI policies." A 90-year-old volunteer could be railroaded out for miscommunication about an "email policy." That's not a reason not to have any "email policy."

The other side of the coin is that there are people out there involved with MS who use pronouns you or I wouldn't guess, and the fact that the National MS Society has a policy that supports chosen pronouns can be expected to make it less likely someone will unjustly railroad them out.
