Nina Lakhani at The Guardian:
A Donald Trump-appointed US attorney has told one of the country’s top law schools to immediately end diversity, equity and inclusion efforts, warning that his justice department office will not hire students or other affiliates associated with a university that utilizes DEI. In an extraordinary letter sent to the dean of Georgetown law school, the recently appointed interim US attorney for the District of Columbia, Ed Martin, said he was investigating the academic institution after it had come to his “attention reliably” that they were teaching and promoting DEI. “This is unacceptable,” wrote Martin, in a letter re-sent this week after the original sent in February was misaddressed, according to the Washington Post. “At this time, you should know that no applicant for our fellows program, our summer internship, or employment in our office who is a student or affiliated with a law school or university that continues to teach and utilize DEI will be considered.” The letter was reportedly addressed to William M Treanor, a constitutional law scholar and one of the nation’s longest-serving deans. Martin, a conservative activist with no prosecutorial experience who has been nominated to take control of the DC office permanently, put two questions to dean Treanor: “First, have you eliminated all DEI from your school and its curriculum? Second, if DEI is found in your courses or teaching in any way, will you move swiftly to remove it?” Martin’s letter was first reported and posted by the Post Millennial, a rightwing website. The move was condemned by legal commentators. “Federal prosecutors don’t control the classroom. This is a dark abdication of the first amendment,” said Adam Steinbaugh, a first amendment lawyer at the Philadelphia-based Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (Fire), on the social media platform Bluesky. This is the latest attack by the Trump administration on diversity, equity and inclusion practices which proliferated as part of the nation’s reckoning triggered by the 2020 murder of George Floyd by a Minneapolis police officer. The White House campaign against tackling systemic and structural inequalities in US society have so far led to outright bans on agencies, academic institutions and private businesses – some of which are being challenged in the courts. In one case, a federal judge has temporarily halted enforcement against large universities and publicly traded companies from a Trump executive order canceling federal contracts that include components of DEI.
Ed Martin is a pathetic disgrace to America.
