Why We Walk on Eggshells: How Our Civil Rights Laws Stifle our Civic Discourse by Gail Heriot
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 1.7 MB
Overview: What happens when left-of-center ideas on matters of race or sex can’t be challenged in polite company? Free from criticism, they slowly grow increasingly extreme, eventually losing touch with reality. This is how we find ourselves in the Woke Era.
In Why We Walk on Eggshells, Gail Heriot sketches out the practical incentives created by our civil rights law and policies that caused the woke ideology to develop and flourish.
One of the most important of those incentives was the Civil Rights Act of 1991, which for the first time made employment-discrimination lawsuits—including those based on harassment—lucrative for plaintiffs. Employers understandably panicked and started requiring what came to be called diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) training to ensure that employees would never say anything, no matter how trivial or even how true, that might be considered offensive. Employees were urged to walk on eggshells. Even statements like “I believe the most qualified person should get the job” were often forbidden.
