New Disney World board cancels diversity programs
Eliminating Disney World’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion programs and board will lead employees of color and who are LGBTQ to feel disenfranchised, according to a former GOP political operative.
“People who work for Disney don’t make a whole lot of money but feel included,” said Vanessa Brito who served as a consultant for the Republican Party of Florida. “I think that’s going to change.”
Brito was responding to the news that the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District board overseeing Disney World dissolved DEI committees and eliminated jobs with DEI duties because they are allegedly discriminatory.
