DEI went from workplace darling to Persona non grata in the blink of an eye.
The thing that I loved is when I saw
that the president's executive order was named ending illegal discrimination,
I was like, what?
Oh my goodness.
Thank you for that gift.
Why one workplace diversity expert is embracing the change and what it could mean for your job.
That's this week on Explain It To Me new episode Sundays, wherever you get your podcasts.
Hey, it's Aaron, back with another one of our interviews with Polk Award winners.
Today I'm talking to Brian Howey.
He was a graduate student at the University of California,
Berkeley's journalism program when he produced this story in partnership with the LA Times and also a podcast version in partnership with Reveal.
It's a great conversation about how he came to find out about this controversial policing technique and turn it into both a text and audio story.
I hope you enjoy it.
We'll be back with more Polk Award winners later this week.
Welcome to the long form podcast.
Brian Howey, hey, how's it going?
Thanks for having me.
Congratulations on your Polk Award.
Thank you.
