I want to share some ideas for how we can continue to do important DEI work amidst the current anti-DEI climate.

Being a queer-run business, I love helping LGBTQIAP+-centric orgs engage in DEIAB

Include ERGS in your DEI Playbook

Transformative goal setting

human-centered, liberatory design, and systems change based diversity, equity, inclusion, accessibility, and belonging

EKKE consulting and Letters by Lucinetic work together to challenge bias in large language models

There are many ways we have infused AI into systems that we know are biased. Some of the resources I offer below dive into the studies they are doing to show that software created by humans is just as biased (if not even more so sometimes) as us humans.

Here are 3 of my go-to practices, tools, and initiatives an organization can implement that will help improve the DEIAB health of the organization and provide ongoing checks and balances and opportunities for meaningful relationship building.
