Member-only story
Back before the election and I was voicing my concerns about a tRumpt presidency, I received a comment from a self-professed transgender woman who said she was a conservative and supported the felon.
Her reasoning was, he had not been that bad during his first term. She also mentioned nothing about all the negatives he spewed about the transgender population. Well, he is here now and in all his glory has shown an indication to destroy the foundation our country was built on. It turns out, the self-professed “king’s” attacks on the transgender community were just the beginning. In fact, the attacks on DEI have reached down as far as my association with the local, Cincinnati, Alzheimer’s chapter.
For those of you who did not know, I have been a member of the local Diversity Commitee for the past several months or nearly a year. Very recently, the message came along from the council saying the Diversity Council would be changing its name. They were removing “Diversity” from the title. Naturally, I was shocked to say the least. The long tentacles of hate from the new felon’s administration had suddenly become a stark reality to me.
Since that time, I have decided to resign my spot on the committee in protest. The remainder of the group can pursue their new “health initiative” without me.
