Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin has found a solution: appoint someone who despises DEI to the Chief Diversity Officer position. Martin D. Brown, a black Republican, was appointed last fall and has now declared that DEI is dead.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet\u2019s take a moment to kill that cow right now: DEI is dead,\u201d Martin said while addressing the Virginia Military Institute. \u201cWe\u2019re not going to bring that cow up anymore. It\u2019s dead. This governor has a different philosophy of civil discourse, civility, treating \u2014 living the golden rule, right?\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Merit Over Lowered Standards<\/h3>\n<p>Youngkin believes in merit and keeping standards high for all Americans while helping disadvantaged U.S. citizens succeed to meet those expectations. DEI advocates often encourage lowering standards, such as admissions processes, in order to promote diversity under the theory that the standards are biased and favor white Americans.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVMI\u2019s in a unique space,\u201d Brown told the war college. \u201cYou\u2019ve been at the tip of the spear in serving our country in sending warriors to battle, but in a way, you\u2019re at the tip of the spear in this cultural war as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alumni have become particularly hostile to the school\u2019s decision under a new superintendent to make DEI one of its main initiatives. But a VMI education is intended to prepare soldiers and leaders for war \u2014 not put woke projects ahead of excellence.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGenerally, when you are focusing on equity, you\u2019re not pursuing merit or excellence or achievement,\u201d Brown added. \u201cNot all the time, but you\u2019re looking at equal outcomes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Virginia\u2019s Chief Diversity Officer blasted society for making \u201cdiversity\u201d the mission.<\/p>\n<h3>Removing DEI Mandates<\/h3>\n<p>Youngkin has previously scrubbed \u201cequity\u201d from other government agencies as well \u2014 especially the Department of Education. \u201cAll Virginia students should have the opportunity to receive an excellent education that teaches all history \u2014 the good and the bad, prioritizes academic excellence, and fosters equal opportunities for all students,\u201d Youngkin said in 2022. \u201cOur Virginia students should not be taught to discriminate on the basis of sex, skin color, or religion, and VDOE policies should certainly not direct such concepts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Removing DEI mandates from society \u2014 and their disastrous consequences that harm all Americans \u2014 is going to take years, but it helps when you have somebody like Martin who wants DEI dead on arrival leading the charge to root it out of society. Youngkin made battling the Left\u2019s disastrous policies that degrade Virginia\u2019s quality of education a core part of his 2021 campaign late into the game. It helped him win the gubernatorial office, and so far he has delivered as promised: Martin proves it.<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>The views expressed in this piece are the author\u2019s own and do not necessarily represent those of The Daily Wire.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What\u2019s the soundest way to ensure that racist \u201cdiversity, equity, and inclusion\u201d policies based on Critical Race Theory are eradicated from your government?
