The Buzz: Making the Case for White DEIJ Leadership

Posted by Dr. Nathan Bullock | Mar 21, 2024 | Recent Posts, The Buzz | 0

The targeting of the likes of Dr. Marsha McGriff (former CDO at UF) is enabled by those who point to successful and educated Black women in positions of power as having “unfairly benefited” from affirmative action. Such erroneous claims would fall flat in the first instance if white folks took initiative in leading DEIJ change in their organizations.

This past Monday, we celebrated Martin Luther King Jr. Day–a national holiday to honor the life and legacy of Dr. King and his tireless fight for civil rights for Black Americans. On MLK day, every year, we are flooded with quotes on social media and in the news. Politicians make statements commemorating Dr. King, while at the same time enacting or opposing legislation that disavows the ideals he lived and died to advance.
