I am immensely privileged to be a part of this community and to work alongside outstanding clinicians, dieticians, nurses, physicians, and NPs.

Daily, I am witnessing remarkable individuals, former colleagues, and friends being terminated from roles they have dedicated themselves to. These individuals made significant sacrifices to enhance the health and well-being of all Americans. Their dismissal is due to the current administration's preference for ignorance over intelligence, lies over science, intolerance over compassion, and exclusion over belonging. This situation is alarming and discouraging. The misinformation and ignorance will cost lives. I can't believe we are here.

Billina Shaw, MD, MPH, FAPA, FASAM you are a phenomenal psychiatrist, advocate, leader and an even better person. I am so sorry. You and many others deserve so much better than this

This is another example of what happens when unqualified, racist individuals are given jobs they haven't earned and are not skilled enough to hold. DEI is supposed to ensure that those who are actually qualified, but are frequently oppressed and discriminated against, are hired and acknowledged for their incredible skills.

This move is another example of the ignorance, hatred, and mediocrity that has consumed the government and our country. Rather than celebrating the historic accomplishments of Americans who fought and sacrificed to save this country, racists are working so hard to erase and hide the strength and brilliance of women and people of color. This isn't DEI, this is weak men doing weak things
