While I agree with this, I think its important to keep in mind that students right out of college and who have not taken part in our society's big discussion on how to address racial/gender inequality and working towards equal proportion may not speak with the greatest of nuance. Give room for people to speak on their authentic experience (without trying to feel any personal offense) and give this forum to people who identify on any side of the political aisle. I happen to take the opinion that this so-called "Anti-Racist" movement happens to espouse quite a few policies that are discriminatory. Its not to say that some of their efforts are bad, but there needs to be room for critique without accusations of harboring racial resentment. The lack of room of express is creating resentment IMO.

Some say the election of Donald Trump is in part due to the backlash against the intolerance of the left. He definitely does not say things to be "politically correct".

I think the whole DEI movement is a great example. It's easy to say "we should hire a POC or woman for this position", it's not ok to say "we should not hire based on gender or race".

DEI = Diversity, Equality(edit: equity), and Inclusion, according to Duck.

(For anyone who hasn't seen the acronym before.)
