Can DEI Workers Strike Back?
                Even as the Trump administration seeks to dismantle DEI in the name of “merit,” the law it distorts still harbors possibilities for resistance. Title VII prohibits retaliation against employees who…
            
        
    
    
            "In sum, then, employees doing DEI work to help prevent discrimination are engaged in protected opposition conduct under Title VII. Therefore, inflicting 'adverse employment actions' upon them because of such work constitutes illegal retaliation under Title VII."

            Today, Jerry Kang and @noahzatz.bsky.social argue that even as the Trump administration seeks to dismantle DEI in the name of “merit,” the civil rights law it distorts still harbors possibilities for resistance.

                Statement on Recent Events
                The online targeting and harassment of the LPE Project’s Deputy Director, Helyeh Doutaghi, is part of a broader environment of speech repression, particularly of anti-war and pro-Palestinian views.
            
        
    
    
            No one should *ever* be targeted for speaking out in solidarity with Palestine, including my brilliant colleague @helyehdoutaghi.bsky.social. These are terrifying times, and we must all stand together against repression.
