MSNBC-Gastheer tears the right-wing obsession with the brutal reality control apart

MSNBC -Guestheer Ali Velshi has arrived on Saturday conservatives about their fixation on diversity, equity and inclusion, or Dei, initiatives after President Donald Trump’s statement that such efforts were blamed for the deadly midaire collision in Washington, DC last week.

His comments arrived after Melissa Murray, an MSNBC legal analyst and law professor at New York University, argued that the attacks on Dei “about reversing the profit of the civil rights movement” and “recovering, rearranging a form of racial and genderhierarchy. “

Velshi chimed in and noted that there were “many more aircraft accidents” prior to the beginning of Dei.

“Before we had diversity in the federal workforce, before there were other pilots than the Tuskegee Airmen – there were no commercial, there were virtually no commercial black pilots, there were no women,” Velshi said.

“Aircraft have crashed much more and that has much more to do with technology and where we are and safety. We have not blamed white people for crashing planes, nor should we do that. We have learned how we can investigate aircraft crash carefully and correctly and come up with recommendations, “he went on.

Velshi added that conservatives have now made aircraft crash about ‘something else’ by pointing out standards and diversity because there is a ‘fairer federal workforce’.

Eddie Glaude Jr., a professor of Afro -American studies at Princeton University, said that people “who have to understand that shift for what it is” while they speak with Velshi and Murray.

“It is a pronounced racist and sexist and masculinist agenda,” Glaude argued, which referred to elements of white nationalism in the president’s policy.

“We are bringing again the mid-20th century, we bring the Black Freedom struggle again, we bring the women’s movement again, we bring the gay liberation movement again, we have to understand what it motivates,” he added.

He continued later: “Every time the country tires of the search for racial justice falls into this illusion, this fantasy to get rid of us, to try us to move us to the margins, to banish the difference. That is the only way an idea of ​​the American identity can work together is that … whiteness and masculinity must be anchor, so we are back to where we have always been. “
