DEI Is Worth Saving From Its Excesses
WSJ | Roland Fryer
Harvard Professor Roland Fryer, who overcame statistically insurmountable obstacles to become a world-renowned economist, argues that DEI based on finding talent should not be part of the collateral damage in rooting out DEI excesses, from pre-K through high school, college and corporations.
“I worry that the desire to take down DEI in its entirety will make successes like mine harder, even impossible, to realize. What gives me hope is that there are important parts of DEI almost anyone can believe in. Optimizing talent and giving all the opportunity to reach their full potential are at the core of what it means to be American.”
