The DEI wave that surged in 2020 is crashing, and once again, Black professionals are the first to pay the price. From layoffs and sidelining to performative accountability and shrinking budgets, many are left wondering: What now?
In this episode, we’re talking about the DEI backlash and what it means for those who've built careers, movements, and entire identities around the pursuit of equity in the workplace.
We ask:
- How has this DEI unraveling shown up personally and professionally?
- What happens when the rug is pulled out from under your leadership?
- What does meaningful equity work look like now, especially outside of formal DEI titles?
- And most importantly: What new power centers can we create, lead, and own?
