DEI Undone: The Rise, Fall, and Rebirth of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

DEI Undone is a fearless excavation of how diversity, equity, and inclusion rose from radical liberation movements and was co-opted, corporatised, and ultimately weaponised against the very communities it claims to serve.Tracing DEI’s evolution from grassroots struggle to institutional branding, this book exposes performative allyship, tokenism, and 'woke capitalism', revealing who truly benefitted while structural inequality remained intact.Through sharp analysis, real-world case studies, and an unflinching examination of Palestine as DEI’s ultimate litmus test, DEI Undone names the limits of liberal inclusion and the politics of silencing dissent.
