Diversity training is any program designed to facilitate positive intergroup interaction, reduce prejudice and discrimination, and generally teach individuals who are different from others how to work together effectively. On April 22, 2022, Florida Governor DeSantis signed into law the “Individual Freedom Act.” The bill prohibited schools and companies from mandating diversity training as a requirement for attendance or employment.

No, this will lead to more hatred and animosity.
@9JDPRPN11mos11MO
No, everyone is equal no matter who they are and diversity training is kinda wrong to be honest and it's up to the employee's behavior.
@9HB5MKV1yr1Y
Yes, but only if the training focuses on racial cooperation and understanding and not critical race theory where one race is more privileged or disadvantaged compared to another
@9JL9Q8N 11mos11MO
No, this practice is divisive, choosing to focus on what makes us different from each other - ceding even more "power" to those that have been protected/privileged (legally/programs - affirmative action). We should be focused on values that we can unite to support and that makes companies succeed - good work.
@9BFSG842yrs2Y
Yes, if they want to. But personally, I think this is a stupid trend happening. It's unnecessary by adding more attention to race your making people more conscious of race. An example is a kid said when he was in middle school he never once thought about race. but once he had crt all he thought abt a person while first meeting them was race. We shouldn't focus about race for anything we should just regonise that were all people and that we should be treated equally.
@9FB23ZX1yr1Y
I don't understand this question, can it be more specific?
@04DANSALCALIFORNIA@2yrs2Y
Encourage diversity, but if you have to tell your employees not to be racist, they shouldn't be employees.
@9D53XZH1yr1Y
Yes, because the government should have very limited regulation on private companies. The free market should dictate what training is profitable.
