Mayor Baltimore doubles on Dei with the campaign “definitely earned it”
“I didn’t earn it” or “definitely earned it?”
Mayor Baltimore Brandon Scott stands firmly on Diversity, equality and inclusion (dei) Policy, despite increasing the return against controversial programs and initiatives.
Some internet commentators labeled Scott as “Dei Mayor” due to the Baltimore Bridge collapse last year when the container ship hit Key Bridge Francis Scottresulting in six people lost their lives.
In an interview with Associated Press, Scott said he saw attacks on him as part of a wider back attack against black Americans and other historically disenfranchised groups in leadership. He said he rejected the assumption and insists that he was neatly elected to run the city of Charm. In November, he was re -elected to duty after defeating Republican challenger Shannon Wright.
Scott now doubles on Dei and said he is running the campaign “definitely earned it” for the month of black history, which takes place during February. The term is a game on the words “I didn’t earn it”, which Dei’s opponents use to emphasize what they say is a lack of meritocracy baked in Dei.
He said he wanted to set a record directly on the Dei policy, which he believed to bring American values.
“Since we have to be bigger, blacker and louder than ever,” Scott said in the Associated Press in an interview, addressing why he is running campaign.
“We cannot let darkness try to come and overtake our light, because darkness cannot surpass the light, only the light can overcome the darkness. It does not run, do not hide, do not decrease in an instant, be who you are and push yourself in every way to which you can. “
Scott said his campaign “will definitely earn him” to be spreading the month of black history, emphasizing the influence that the blacks had on the ground.
“We will notice that these people were not – well, that they were Dei, but Dei in the sense that they definitely made him earned,” Scott told AP.
“They have earned every single thing they have achieved because they are not given. We can show people what it truly means when you have to do 10 times, which is tiring when you have to work through the systems that have been built for you fails, when you have to take care of that Return the door open to other people who come behind you.
Trump’s administration is on the mission to suffocate all programs and initiatives related to Dei within the Federal Government, claiming that it reduced the standards and promoted the agenda of waking up.
In his first week, Trump signed an executive order that ended offices and initiatives in federal workforce. Last week, Trump signed two executive orders to ban “radical gender ideology” and Dei initiatives from all branches of the US army.

He noted that the bridge was built before he gave birth, there were very few minorities built, and the ship was not piloting a black person.
“What these people who unfortunately think that they think is that if you are not a direct white man from a particular background – because I want my poor white brothers and sisters realize that they don’t talk about them either – unless you are from a particular background, rich Historical families with direct white Christian men, then you should never be in the position of power and that your thoughts and opinions do not matter, “Scott said.
“And that is the saddest part of everything.”
