It’s an Ellie Talking Head show!! We don’t have a guest, and instead you get me for the entire show! Today our featured idealist is Col. Ben Jonsson, who has been singled out for a “promotion hold” by MO. Senator Eric Schmitt because Col. Jonsson’s had the audacity to write a letter telling white Air Force colonels to check for their institutional racism. Unbelievable! From there, I talk about International Women’s Day and how I’ve had the great fortune of being “adopted” by several dynamic women in Chaska. For my C-Block, I talk about how the numbers show that the landscape has become far less welcoming to DEI professionals like me.
