The Interior Department has ordered national parks to review and remove gift shop items related to diversity, equity and inclusion.
This directive is part of a broader effort to keep park gift shops as “neutral spaces that serve all visitors.”
The order follows executive actions by Donald Trump targeting DEI programs across the federal government.
National parks have been ordered to check their gift shops for items that support programs like diversity, equity and inclusion – and remove them.
Literally the opposite of neutral 😑 Why are these folks so scared of other people existing?
It’s simple really. White folk, especially old white men, have done so many bad things for so long that there really isn’t much legitimate good things that they can take credit for anymore. Add to that a systemic lack of accountability, and you get a lot of fragile egos that don’t understand that part of life is a) apologizing, and 2) sitting with and thinking about the things that make you uncomfortable. So instead, they prop themselves up by bringing other people down, and removing the legitimate accomplishments of the people that in effect demonstrate how inferior these white old men genuinely are.
~i.e. they lack emotional maturity, emotional intelligence, and empathy.~
