Diversity, equity, and inclusion martyrdom has no place in the world or the Church

Writer Hope Bonarcher argues that we have become too ‘woke’ for our own good.

Have you heard of the corporate craving for the sweet spot of diversity, equity and inclusion? My husband, a straight white man, just doesn’t fit the mould. Accomplishing 30 years of skill in his profession, he has a brilliant reputation, is a hard worker and loves what he does. Still, in his mid 40s it’s become stunningly apparent he’s been born in the wrong skin, on the wrong side of the woke resistance against common sense and practical history. 

He’ll just have to check his white privilege at the door and his black wife and mixed children have to suck it up in the name of inclusivity. Did I forget to mention, he’s the white husband of a black wife with four mixed race children? It shouldn’t matter; I truly hate that it does.
