This is what happened in South Africa. We have to remember that in the U.S. the black population is ~13% – not 100%. We have gone over board in our educational system to accommodate the 13% and look at the system – it has affected 100%. Was this right/fair? We are in a democracy where we compete. The left is in the wrong lane of traffic.
We must have education for different reasons to keep the traffic moving in different lanes and stop trying keep everyone in the same lane.
It’s time to quit throwing other people’s money into these projects and let the market dictate the solutions.
Wonder what would happen if a white person wrote an article and stated – “Decentering blackness” in the workplace?
How many one-ups/hand outs do blacks need to compete?
The black people need to stand up against this equality – this person wants to continue to dilute the EQUALITY in business like they have diluted education by dumbing down the educational system so that black people can compete. We need to start having IQ TESTS in order to hire the best and brightest in the system – not just holding a job because you are a dumb white/black.
This is what this woman is working to do. We already have enough in our economic base which is indicated by all blue states failing because they are just present in a job and do not have the qualifications.
This is what happens when you put people like ASARE in a position who is so prejudice.
She needs to be fired.

- Republican Senator J.D. Vance criticized the article titled ‘3 Ways To Decenter Whiteness In Your Workplace,’ authored by DEI boss Janice Gassam Asare
- In the Forbes article, Asare explores dismantling systems that prioritize white dominant culture to create a more ‘inclusive’ workplace for people of color.
- Vance, among others, strongly condemned the article, calling it racist and criticizing Forbes for publishing it
A diversity, equity, and inclusion boss faces a state probe over an article she wrote in Forbes about ‘decentering whiteness’ in the workplace.
Janice Gassam Asare was branded ‘racist’ by Republican Senator J.D. Vance over the piece. The congressman has now ordered a probe into whether Asar and her ocnsultancy, BWG Business Solutions, has ever been handed Ohio taxpayers’ cash.
In the Forbes article, Asare explores dismantling systems that prioritize white dominant culture to create a more ‘inclusive’ workplace for people of color.
She defines ‘white-centering’ as a phenomenon that elevates white culture at the expense of non-white groups, contributing to inequity and injustice within organizations.
‘It has been given many names including the White gaze and Whiteness as the default,’ she said, ‘Because White-centering is often left unexamined and unchecked, equity and justice have continued to evade organizations.’

Vance strongly condemned the article, calling it racist and criticizing Forbes for publishing it.
‘I’m just done with this s—. It’s racist and it’s gross. Forbes should be ashamed of themselves for publishing it,’ he wrote. ‘The author is a ‘diversity, equity, and inclusion’ consultant. I’ve directed my staff to investigate whether her ‘business’ receives any public money from Ohio.’

In response, Asare claimed that Vance misunderstood the concept of ‘decentering whiteness’ and offered to provide further clarification through her book on the subject.
Vance, among many others, condemned the content and initiated an investigation into Asare and whether her organization receives funding from Ohio.
Others on X, including public figures, such as The Federalist editor-in-chief Mollie Hemingway and fellow Federalist writer David Harsanyi, expressed disapproval of both the article and Forbes for promoting what they called anti-American sentiments and racism.
Republican candidate Vivek Ramaswamy also chimed in, arguing against the idea of ‘decentering whiteness’ by suggesting it equated to firing white individuals.
He called it ‘racism without the possibility of reverse racism.’
Another commented, ‘Abolition of DEI should be part of the Anti-Communist Manifesto.’
