As Seamus Heaney wrote:

History says, don’t hope

This isn't anti-DEI - it's retelling history as a story with only white men in it. The tale of the Navajo Code Talkers is essential to understanding the Allies' victory in WWII. Removing it because the people involved were non-white is segregationism.

"I don't care why I care" either
Recently I've been asked, with something like suspicion, why do I care? Do we need to have self interest or a personal stake in an issue to justify caring? weird, sign o'times I guess. I don't know why I care. Luckily, I don't care why I care.
