Then you perceive the body of our kingdom
How foul it is, what rank diseases grow,
And with what danger, near the heart of it.

When people cheer on the dismantling of DEI, the first thing they say is “great…hire people by merit.” But DEI programs are about allowing minority and marginalized groups a chance, not giving it to them just because of diversity. It’s sad to see so many companies abandoning it so quickly. #dei

To quote Jason from The Good Place: It was dope.
On Monday, we got a couple dozen artists together to perform a play about the Jane Collective to a sold out audience that included friends, strangers, and 3 former Janes. And we raised over $3,000 for Chicago Abortion Fund and Planned Parenthood.
