How Equality Wins: A New Vision for an Inclusive America

The authors behind the "crucial read" (Gretchen Rubin, New York Times bestselling author) Say the Right Thing return with this groundbreaking manifesto for reimagining the work of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in a divided America.The work of DEI has faced a relentless political and legal assault. Without a clear path forward, progress toward fairness in our workplaces, universities, schools, and other institutions risks grinding to a halt. So how do we build a more just world when the old playbook is no longer viable? In this bold manifesto, Kenji Yoshino and David Glasgow, founders of the Meltzer Center for Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging at NYU School of Law candidly unpack the failures of DEI-from over-emphasizing differences to stifling dissent-and offer a daring new vision to overcome the rising barriers to equality. Drawing from their legal expertise and extensive experience advising Fortune 500 companies and nonprofits, Yoshino and Glasgow provide practical research-backed guidance for employees seeking respectful workplaces, parents concerned about school culture, and organizational leaders striving for success in a rapidly diversifying nation. In an era when equality feels imperiled, How Equality Wins provides an urgent and hopeful call to action.
