Executive Order Pt.1

The current administration issued an executive order that put major restrictions on diversity and equity training at federal institutions and places that receive federal funding, "in order to promote unity in the federal workforce, and to combat offensive and anti-American race and sex stereotyping and scapegoating."  However, this order is problematic and symptomatic of a greater discussion about race that our society needs to address.  In part one, I focus on the following items of the order:A) one race or sex is inherently superior to another race or sex B) an individual, by virtue of his or her race or sex, is inherently racist, sexist, or oppressive, whether consciously or unconsciously C) an individual should be discriminated against or receive adverse treatment solely or partly because of his or her race or sex D) members of one race or sex cannot and should not attempt to treat others without respect to race or sex
