Become Who You Are

#376 Making Sense of "Woke" 8; With Thomas Hampson, "Is Diversity Always a Good Thing?"


Listen Later

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”

We hear ad nauseam about the need for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.  What's really behind this constant barrage of propaganda?

Joining me today is former undercover crime investigator and author Thomas Hampson to unpack his recent article Pride Month .

Tom writes:

In his proclamation creating what has become known simply as Pride Month, President Clinton made this comment:

America’s diversity is our greatest strength. But, while we have come a long way on our journey toward tolerance, understanding, and mutual respect, we still have a long way to go in our efforts to end discrimination.”

What’s interesting is the use of the phrase “diversity is our greatest strength.” It is a concept that has been around for many years but became popularized during the nineties, especially in business publications.

Several books and articles focused on what made for success and failure in the business world. Researchers determined that diverse teams were better at innovation, creativity, problem-solving, decision-making, and meeting the challenges of a global marketplace. This is true, depending on what you mean by diversity.

This is not true if you mean diversity alone.

Diversity of height on an NBA team, for example, would ensure the team’s defeat. Diversity of skill, regardless of certification, for welders used to build our submarines would guarantee no sailor would volunteer to become a submariner. Diversity of character in our elected officials would assure out-of-control corruption in our government—which we have.

Diversity, alone, is not a strength. Calling diversity a strength is an empty phrase that sounds good but is meaningless in real-world application except when combined with other qualities.

What is most important is unity of purpose.


Coming soon: Tom and Jack's weekly show "Stolen Innocence" on Rumble:
How many children must be sacrificed at the altar of "Woke" before we "Awaken"? Sex trafficking, hook-ups, rape, pornography, abortion,  gender ideologies...millions  upon millions of victims.  If you saw these children of God as He sees them you would weep. Weep upon a Cross.
