I’ve observed a trend of in-house DE&I professionals being let go from their full-time positions, and many independent consultants, including myself, have experienced a decline in US-based business in recent months (years). This shift in the DE&I landscape is a cause for concern, as it could potentially limit the resources and support available for multiple marginalized communities in addition to the Queer Community. Continue reading Election Aftermath – Navigating Trump’s Re-Election and its Implications: Fear, Uncertainty, and the Future of DE&I
It’s not just Queer People who face threat if Project 2025 is activated.

David and I don’t ‘get out’ much.
