(The Center Square) – According to Bloomington Public Schools District 87 documents, staff were directed to participate in “Privilege Walks,” where teachers start on a line and take a step forward for each “privilege” they identify with, like being white, a male, having married parents, etc.

Illinois state Rep. Regan Deering, R-Decatur, anticipates diversity, equity and inclusion “privilege walks” will likely continue despite President Donald Trump’s executive orders banning these types of programs in the public sector.
