A nail in DEI's coffin: American Airlines suspends diversity, equity, and inclusion hiring policies

Another nail was put in DEI’s coffin last week with American Airline’s announcement that it will end DEI hiring and employment practices. The decision comes after America First Legal, a conservative watchdog organization, filed a federal civil rights complaint against American Airlines for discriminatory employment practices that violate federal contracting requirements. "Despite receiving over $140 million in federal government contracts since 2008 and promising in accordance with Executive Order 11246 that it will not discriminate in hiring, promotion, or employee training because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, American Airlines has explicitly engaged in race and sex discrimination in hiring programs, Cadet Academy recruitment, and promotional processes," AFL reported. On Tuesday, the organization tweeted the following: To hear Dave Rubin’s commentary on the announcement, watch the clip below.

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
