Comedian Bill Maher criticizes diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives as ineffective and a distraction from addressing the root causes of racial inequality. He argues that better schools, more involved fathers, and an end to the drug war are more practical solutions.
Liberal comedian Bill Maher dismissed diversity, equity and inclusion efforts as meaningless virtue signaling by the left that does nothing to address racial divides or inequity in the U.S. In a new episode of the 'Club Random' podcast released Sunday, Maher was joined by late night icon Jay Leno, where the pair discussed the push for DEI efforts in institutions and corporations across the U.S.
Maher said the 'the virtue signaling and the stuff they do to make themselves fel better about being allies' is a distraction from addressing the root of the problem. 'You want to be a good ally, address the actual problems. Any racial problems in this country is not addressed by DEI and having programs like that,' he said pointedly. The solution, according to Maher, comes down to three things. 'Better schools.
Pressure on private companies to relinquish their DEI commitments has yielded significant change as critics decry them as discriminatory and ineffective. Most recently, Walmart, Nissan and American Airlines joined the growing list of major corporations to halt the so-called 'woke' initiatives, with others expected to follow suit.
