Legal Insurrection (LI) has pursued cases against DEI mandates and activities in schools because they put immutable characteristics over the law. LI usually concentrates on higher education, but the corrupt, anti-American ideology of DEI (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion) has come to the Ithaca City School District (ICSD).
Legal Insurrection sent a letter to the school calling on it to desegregate an event planned for the end of this month. The event appears to be open only to students and staff “of color.”
The letter references the 70th Anniversary of the Supreme Court ruling in Brown v. Board of Education, 347 U.S. 483 (1954), which held, among other things, that segregation of students by race in public schools violates the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution.
They explained that “in light of this,” they are deeply troubled.
The Summit explicitly excludes white children in grades 6-12. Allies are not invited, which also refers to white students and staff.
DEI is communism, and our Constitution disallows it. The cancer of Marxism and injustice has infiltrated many PK-12 schools.
The letter also explains the law and states that segregation is illegal.

I am happy that after retiring/quitting/resigning I no longer see the AA abuses. DIE (please use the more correct acronym) is now the blanket term for illegal discrimination, which includes AA. At my employer, there were meetings restricted to certain types, and promotions/hirings restricted to certain types. Not many people saw the things I saw. This has been going on for 40 years, but most are seeing it only now.
As is typical left wing agendas like DEI are all about lies, including the title.
Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) are organizational frameworks which seek to promote the “fair” treatment and full participation of all people.
But in actuality it stand more for Divide, Eviserate, Isolate.
Can other readers come up with a better, more truthful set?
I was forced to attend these type of indoctrination sessions years ago but the atmosphere was different. When we got the usual wymen telling us about sexual harassment most of the men started snoring or asking questions that the harridans couldn’t respond to in an intelligent fashion. Most beat a hasty retreat. Needless to say things got worse as more asexual men were recruited and more Karens entered the work force. Today we see the Red Guards in full force and how it has impacted freedoms and capitalism. When Oreo’s are used to promote diversity and trannies parading you wonder how long it is before you pray for a comet to end it all.
