Service, Identity, and Inclusion - Veterans in the DEI Conversation
We are excited for this Tripwire episode with this important discussion. Staci as a Cherokee woman and veteran, believes the veteran identity should be a positive force in the DEI conversation, not a divisive one. Immigration and veteran status intersect in complicated ways, like with her friend—an 8-year Marine with undocumented parents—who, under new laws, could be deported despite his service. It's vital to stand in our truths, but also stay open-minded and willing to listen, respect, and learn from each other. Through empathy and understanding, we can honor the diverse experiences that shape our country. https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/protecting-the-meaning-and-value-of-american-citizenship/
