Advice from someone who cares/thinks a lot about effective messaging?

Don't use the acronym. Say the words "diversity, equity, and inclusion." Slowly and with emphasis.

Every time.

Don't let them hide their opposition to these basic, common sense, and popular ideas behind an acronym.

Kinda breathtaking really. I’m not going to judge how a woman who just lost her partner should act. My opinion is of no consequence in that regard.

What is truly awful is that the Trump folks can’t bring themselves to offer condolences and Trump went golfing instead.
