Tesla founder Elon Musk asserts that diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives are a form of discrimination. He contends that such initiatives should be discontinued.

Musk expressed his frustration with diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives on X (formerly Twitter).

On December 15, 2023, Musk wrote on X (formerly Twitter), criticizing “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” as propaganda words for racism and sexism.

He argued that changing the target class doesn’t make it morally right. In a second tweet, Musk went further, suggesting that DEI initiatives must be eliminated from American society. He emphasized that the goal was to end discrimination, not replace it with different forms of discrimination.

Musk’s recent tweets align with conservative efforts nationwide to eliminate DEI positions in higher education. 

The University of Oklahoma, in compliance with an executive order from Governor Kevin Stitt, announced plans to eliminate all DEI inclusion offices at the state’s public universities. The pushback against the removal of DEI inclusion offices has sparked controversy.

Eddie S. Glaude Jr., a Princeton University professor, argues in a Time op-ed that conservatives are actively working to eliminate DEI initiatives.

In the article titled “DEI Is Not The Monster Here,” Eddie S. Glaude Jr. argues that right-wing critics, under the guise of a commitment to classical liberal education, are pursuing illiberal ends. He claims that these critics deny the value of diversity altogether.

Moreover, he continued, stating, “They ignore or downplay the history of exclusion that has defined much of the history of places like Princeton, Harvard, or Yale. For them, meritocracy alone resolves historical inequity.”

Musk’s recent tweets on DEI align with conservatives’ efforts to eliminate DEI positions in higher education. The University of Oklahoma plans to comply with an executive order by eliminating all DEI inclusion offices at the state’s public universities.

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is suing Tesla Inc. over concerns raised by employees about racial harassment. 

According to the EEOC’s press release, “Since at least 2015 to the present, Black employees at Tesla’s Fremont, California manufacturing facilities have routinely endured racial abuse, pervasive stereotyping, and hostility.”

Throughout the lengthy press release, the EEOC claims that numerous harmful and racist comments were made to black employees. The EEOC said, “as well as epithets such as variations of the N-word, ‘monkey,’ ‘boy,’ and ‘Black b*tch.’ Slurs were used casually and openly in high-traffic areas and at worker hubs.”

The EEOC is seeking compensatory and punitive damages, as well as back pay for the workers who were subject to racist remarks. According to their report, they also want to introduce an injunction aimed at forcing Tesla to change its practices so this kind of discrimination doesn’t occur again in the future.

Tesla’s diversity numbers were made public for the first time this past June. However, the reports show the majority of the electric vehicle company’s employees are men. Approximately 70-80% of Tesla’s workforce is men. Males comprise the majority of the company’s upper management and executive positions.
