The NAACP and the Lawyers Committee on Civil Rights have filed a lawsuit as part of an attempt to fight back against what they describe as a wave of anti-DEI legislation.

The Arkansas State Conference of the NAACP and the Lawyers Committee on Civil Rights are calling on a federal court to enact an injunction against the state of Arkansas over its Literacy, Empowerment, Accountability, Readiness, Networking and School Safety Act, known as the LEARNS Act, which is intended to prohibit public schools from teaching diversity, equity and inclusion and critical race theory. Supporters of the LEARNS Act describe such teaching as “indoctrination.”

    Republicans must find this type of thing to be a winning issue otherwise they wouldn’t push it so much.

    Talking to normal people it’s rather astounding how some attribute everything wrong with a particular situation to DEI and have started using DEI as a slur in speech.
