At the risk of losing nearly $2M in funding, the Japanese American National Museum doubles down on DEI initiatives

Many organizations have been pressured to scrub references to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) from their websites and work, or risk losing federal funding. 

Instead of complying, the Japanese American National Museum is doubling down saying, “We will scrub nothing.” What’s at stake? Nearly two million dollars in grants, most of which had previously been approved by the Biden administration.
