I would love to hear your experiences and your thoughts on this topic. If you have pro-DEI or anti-DEI positions, I will read them, consider them and respect your right to your own opinion.

My position is that I’m anti-DEI as I consider it a form of discrimination against white males and also consider it very deceptive. I’m open to discussing it!

    So, I would like to share an experience from my job that has various ‘affinity groups’ for EVERYONE except white males. We have affinity groups for Arabs, African Americans, Asians, Latino’s, Women, LGBTQ, etc, but none for white males.

    This is rather discriminatory because the leadership at our site, as per one of our HR representatives, is 50% ‘non-white’ and I would say that for the non-leadership portion of the company, it’s about 40% white, with probably 60% being women. My point being, there’s not really that many white males in this building, especially in non-leadership positions.

    I’m somewhat offended by this considering that at these affinity group meetings, leadership interacts with employees and tells them ways to get promoted, etc. It’s quite discriminatory, IMO.
