All Sides with Ann Fisher - 3-23-2023 B - The decrease of diversity, equity and inclusion roles within companies
 
Play
 
Despite the increase in roles focused on diversity, equity, and inclusion after George Floyd's death three years ago, recent studies show that these roles with organizations are disappearing across the U.S.

The roles are going away due in part mass layoffs as companies find ways to cut costs.

We're looking at where DEI began in the corporate world, why these roles seem disposable, and the scarcity of diverse hires that go along with the trend.

Guests:

Reyhan Ayas, senior economist at Revelio Labs
