About this listen
In this episode of Leading in Color, host Sarah Morgan continues the BlackBlogsMatter / BlackPodsMatter challenge with one of the most difficult topics of the series: “The War on DEI.”
As a long-time advocate for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), Sarah reflects on the dismantling of DEI efforts in workplaces, politics, and society. She discusses the harmful narratives framing DEI as a divisive or undeserved initiative, the economic and career consequences for Black and marginalized professionals, and the systemic rollback of rights that were once considered protected.
Despite the challenges, Sarah reminds listeners that this fight is far from over. The push against DEI is a reaction to progress, not the end of it. She calls for resilience, strategy, and collective action to hold the line against discrimination, continue advocating for workplace equity, and expose those attempting to erase hard-fought gains.
This episode is a rallying cry for accountability, activism, and resistance in the face of oppression.
