The State of DEIA Under Trump 2.0 – Pushing Limits – June 13, 2025
This Friday on Pushing Limits, we dig into the escalating attacks on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Access (DEIA) under the Trump administration. As backlash spreads nationwide, what does it mean for the disability community?
Desiree Delonia
Our guest, Desiree Delonia, Director of DEIA at Disability Rights California (DRC), joins us to unpack what DEIA really is, why it matters, and how DRC is pushing back against efforts to dismantle it.
Plus, we will catch up with one of our past guests, Jennifer Chassman, and discuss how her work as a DIEA practitioner has changed since Trump took office.
This episode is hosted by Denny Daughters with production assistance from Jacob Lesner-Buxton, and contributions from Adrienne Lauby.
