A city in Florida has said it was forced to cancel its annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade due to anti-diversity laws.
The city of Delray Beach has also cancelled its Pride event in 2027 due to a state law signed by Republican Governor Ron DeSantis that prohibits local governments from promoting or funding diversity initiatives.
The city said in a statement that restrictions under the law “include certain programming and activities designed or implemented with reference to ethnicity, sexual orientation, or gender identity.”
Millions of Americans think diversity is just another name for black people. That’s how this stupidity gets traction.
And “the gays”.
Tbf: brown people too.
It still blows my mind how it was considered extremely racist to call someone “brown” when I was younger and now it’s what we’re supposed to say. Not as racist as the n-word, of course, but still very racist.
And women
And my axe!
