The idea of racial equity sounds nice, doesn’t it? The Left certainly thinks so. In fact, it’s taken the concept even further, pushing it to the point where racial equity has, in many cases, become racial favoritism.

As diversity, equity, and inclusion fever swept the country during the Biden years, some quietly complied to safeguard their careers. Others, such as the current leadership of Cincinnati, Ohio, embraced DEI not just as policy, but as a personal worldview. And, following the brutal assault of a white couple by a group of predominantly young black individuals in downtown Cincinnati last weekend, it’s come back to haunt them.
