Wait! Don’t go just yet. Stop first to read “Disney dumps two DEI programs as investors pressure company to ax more woke initiatives: SEC filing” by Alexandra Steigrad.* The article reveals that “Disney is reportedly pulling back on its diversity, equity and inclusion policies — the latest major company to walk back the woke initiatives amid pressure from activist investors and the Trump administration.” But that’s not all:
“The company has also dropped its “The Disney Look” appearance guidelines from the DEI section in its SEC filing.”
Now, I’m not sure what that Disney Look is exactly, but I’m guessing I don’t have it. Anyway, could you imagine all this taking place before Walt made that first Mickey Mouse cartoon in 1928? I can see the tryouts with various rodentia showing up with vitae in their little hands. The interviewer says, “Sorry, we’re after a different look. Does anyone here have a rat or mouse relative to recommend?”
