Equity isn’t a political opinion as the EPL Board President said it’s “ingrained in their DNA” in an article about him.
Evanston Public Library’s Board President Michael Tannen says equity is “in [their] DNA” and “We are interested in equity. We do equity. It’s important to us.” [3-4 word sentences are eerily similar to another white man in a supposedly presidential role]
Those quotes are following his quote saying equity audits are for “schools and school districts, and occasionally hospitals and healthcare systems” and them name-dropping Rev Nabors (a black man) & two black board members as if that justifies anything they do.
