“Sitting on the sidelines is not neutrality - it is enabling” ! an important message for those of us in Canadian institutions as well!
I emailed university faculty/staff/administrators a roadmap to support DEI through legal challenges, collective resistance, and institutional protections for faculty. The question isn’t whether institutions will comply—it’s who will fight back, and how! greencarelab.ucdavis.edu/how-universi...
