As has been said before, DEI means "Didn't Earn It."
Three female educators who said the NYC Department of Education replaced them with less-qualified people because of their skin color are getting a big payday in a settlement.
Former NYC DoE employees Lois Herrera, Jaye Murray, and Laura Feijoo are each getting a whopping $700,000 after battling with the city in court for 5 years.
Herrera, holder of a master's degree from Harvard, claimed one of Carranza's deputies "stripped" her of her Office of Safety and Youth Development CEO title and replaced her with Mark Rampersant, who's black and has a GED.
Murray was demoted from her position of Office of Counseling Support Programs executive director and told to report to Rampersant.
Feijoo, who once was in charge of 46 NYC Dept. of Education superintendents, was replaced with a black woman who at the time "lacked the required NY licensing."
The women said this came during "former Chancellor Richard Carranza's crusade against so-called 'toxic whiteness.'"
The description of "toxic whiteness" is simply anti-white racism. And it seems it cost these three ladies their jobs.
Another reason the ladies knew they were replaced for racist purposes is that none of their jobs were advertised to the public. Apparently, the DoE handpicked "people of color" to replace the less desirable white women.
This is only part of the problem at the New York DoE, which went on an anti-racist purge in 2019.
Five years ago, The College Fix reported on "white female executives" in the NYC DOE who had planned to sue over the department's "hostility toward whites" and Carranza's "sweeping reorganization" which "pushed aside" Caucasians. Sources had told the Post then that Carranza informed white employees "they must give up power or lose responsibilities no matter how well they have performed."
In October of 2019, another white (and female) DOE employee who, ironically, was in charge of making sure more minority students got into Advanced Placement classes, sued for race discrimination after being accused, among other things, of "refusing to acknowledge her own white supremacy [and] racism."
She also had to endure Glenn Singleton‘s race trainings, and was told by a colleague to "study" Robin DiAngelo‘s book "White Fragility."
I'm glad they're getting hit with these massive payouts, but it would be a lot nicer if they'd lose in court.
How many more of these lawsuits are we going to see in the years to come?
