I'm sure there are plenty out there who have evolved and not noticing stuff like this. Diversity just for the sake of diversity is just plain wrong and counter productive ....... although I do get where it came from, considering that racism was rampant in this country for so long but at some point you've got to move on Having said that, I'm sure there are, sadly, still cases out there where the lack of diversity is based on racism and those should be dealt with severely, if that is indeed the case. All? Why not some. I’m certain there are many donors, stakeholders, and parents that don’t care at all about diversity, equity, or inclusion. You need to go no further than this thread to see that. Nothing but a bunch of gaslighting, assumptions, and angry people for just mentioning the fact that the coaching staff is all white men.

Do you really think it is over? Wish I could live in your world. That is besides the point. I don’t know Alex G or any of his team. I simply know what has been announced. As of this moment (may change in the future), his staff is all white men. Brock Purdy only throws TD passes to white TEs. It might change in the future, but I simply know what he's done so far in his career. Edited December 16, 2022 by JTrue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More gaslighting? Lol If you don’t believe in diversity, fine. I’m not asking you to change. But I’m not going to respond to your obvious attempts to gaslight me because you have nothing intelligent to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say jumping to conclusions and using a small window of opportunity to push your agenda, when the staff isn't even completely filled out yet, would be gaslighting bruh.

If you truly understood diversity, you would know that it extends much broader than black and white. I was part of an all white six person work group in an HR dept. My department head told me that one of the City Commissioners (who is African-American) publicly criticized us for a lack of diversity. I laughed at him and explained that in just six people we had: Three males, three females Four of us over forty Three of us veterans One Hispanic One disabled Four w/college degrees, two without I informed my department head that perhaps we didn't have the "right" diversity - You know, the only one that counts. He didn't laugh. Edited December 16, 2022 by Grateful Dad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
