How Law Firms Are Keeping DEI Opponents at Bay
Manage episode 440923995 series 1185072
This summer, Bloomberg Law released its fourth DEI Framework, recognizing 57 US-based law firms that meet or exceed standards for diversity, equity, and inclusion. But, in the wake of the Supreme Court's 2023 ruling that ended race-conscious admission programs at colleges and universities, how are these firms managing their initiatives without facing complaints from DEI opponents like conservative activist Edward Blum? Last year, Blum, along with his team, the American Alliance for Equal Rights, successfully challenged firms and their DEI hiring practices. Are these firms leaving the door open to more litigation?
In today's episode of our podcast On The Merits, we talk with Bloomberg Law's Molly Huie, lead data analysis and survey reporter about the DEI Framework findings, as well as Bloomberg Law's DEI reporter, Tatyana Monnay, about how law offices continue to promote DEI in spite of the backlash.
