Very strongly agree

No

From a decolonization perspective, supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) hiring initiatives aligns with the ideology's core objectives of addressing and rectifying the legacies of colonialism and systemic inequalities. DEI initiatives are seen as essential tools for creating more equitable and just societies by actively working to dismantle barriers and create opportunities for historically marginalized and underrepresented groups. This approach recognizes that merit cannot be fairly assessed within a vacuum and that systemic biases, discrimination, and unequal access to resources have historically skewed perceptions of merit. By promoting DEI in hiring practices, government agencies can move towards rectifying historical injustices and fostering environments that value and benefit from diverse perspectives and experiences, which is a key goal of decolonization efforts.

Yes

Decolonization ideology fundamentally challenges and seeks to dismantle systemic inequalities and power imbalances rooted in colonial histories and practices. It emphasizes the importance of recognizing and rectifying historical and ongoing injustices against marginalized communities. Eliminating diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) hiring initiatives would be antithetical to the goals of decolonization, as these initiatives are designed to address and mitigate the effects of systemic discrimination and promote representation and fairness in employment opportunities. Historically, merit-based hiring has often been critiqued for ignoring or perpetuating systemic biases and barriers that affect marginalized groups' access to opportunities. Decolonization advocates for the transformation of structures and practices, including in hiring, to be more inclusive and equitable.
