Article Women’s networking event illegally sidelined men, Trump administration claims

Quote:It’s the first EEOC lawsuit filed over a corporate diversity, equity and inclusion program, part of a sweeping effort by the Trump administration to stamp out what it describes as illegal discrimination.
But more such cases could be imminent. In December, a month after Trump designated her EEOC chair, Andrea Lucas issued an unusual public appeal, asking White men who feel they have experienced discrimination at work to contact the agency “as soon as possible.” In February, she said women-only networking events would create “new girls clubs” that operate like the “old boys clubs” before them, likening them to racially segregated employee social events of the 1970s.
I guarantee no gatherings of white men will be investigated like this.
I also suspect that the equality angle cloaks intent to disrupt women's ability to gather together and share issues without male interference.
