[NFBP-Talk] [GreaterPhilly] Zoom Events This Week

Tue Aug 4 19:22:24 UTC 2020

So let me understand this a little better. The diversity and inclusion meeting is now being censored to a topic for one subset of individual within the organization? That is the purpose of the diversity and inclusion meeting? This is absolutely ridiculous. If you and our state affiliate president would like to censor what is being said, there is no purpose north transparency in these meetings. There is no real goal for true diversity or inclusion. It is bullshit. Forward that over to whoever you’d like.
