Sending in case you hadn't come across these articles yet. May be worth having some conversation at an upcoming gathering. I've also attached PDFs in case you can't access the web articles. For the NYT article, the first couple pages may look hard to read but they're an illustration—the article starts on page 4.

‘America Is Under Attack’: Inside the Anti-D.E.I. Crusade<https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2024/01/20/us/dei-woke-claremont-institute.html>
