Donald Trump is credited with "honey-potting" the Democratic Party by focusing on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) following a recent air crash. The discussion examines the training of a female pilot involved in the incident, debating the significance of having 450 to 500 flight hours. The hosts argue that the focus on her identity is a political distraction.

### Robin DiAngelo's White Fragility and the Diversity Training Industry

Robin DiAngelo's bestseller "White Fragility" is analyzed as the cornerstone of a lucrative corporate diversity training industry. Journalist Matt Taibbi describes the book's theology as an inflexible focus on race that requires white people to atone for their identity for life. These "Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion" (EDI) seminars are viewed as a corporate scam that treats racism as an inexorable individual trait.

### Privilege Exercises, Identity Politics in the Classroom

- **Episode:** [1259: Do The Work](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1259-do-the-work.md)
- **Published:** 2020-07-12
- **Time:** 42:16–45:20
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1259-do-the-work/chapter/privilege-exercises-identity-politics-in-the-classroom.md

Classroom "privilege exercises" are criticized for using inaccurate demographic data to categorize students by race and sexual orientation. A rhetorical strategy is proposed to counter accusations of white privilege by questioning the "privilege" of the accuser in assuming an individual's racial identity. This highlights the tension between individual identity and the broad racial categories used in diversity training.

### Clemson University Diversity Training, Timeliness and Racism Claims

Clemson University reportedly spent $38,000 on a diversity training course for staff that suggested expecting people to be on time could be perceived as racist. The hosts compare this to their experiences with corporate training at MTV and other organizations. They argue that such courses are often "nonsense" designed to incite controversy rather than improve productivity.
