17292: There Is No DEIBA+ In AICP…?

 

Not sure how to fully interpret the post depicted above.

 

The VP, Equity & Inclusion at AICP yesterday announced: Today is a sad day. I just learned that the AICP (Association of Independent Commercial Producers) and the #AICP National Board have decided to join the ranks of #Target, #McDonalds, #JohnDeere, etc. in eliminating their intentional efforts to improve diversity in the #advertising and #commercialproduction areas. First the suspension of the #CDDP, the #Diverse #Directors program with the Directors Guild of America, and now eliminating the #Equity and #Inclusion position.

 

So, the AICP dismantled its heat shields and dismissed its Human Heat Shield—after only roughly three years?

 

Did anyone throw a wrap party?

 

Congratulations, AICP—you just accelerated the employment challenges faced by US Black women too.
