Subject: Keep DEI top of the list
DearCity Council,
San Luis Obispo has made so many important strides in recognizing the importance of welcome for
everyone. We cannot go back to sleep. Please keep the DEI programs top of the list of programs that
MATTER!
With the increase of anti Semitic actions, and the continuing anti Black sentiment on local school
campuses, SLO needs to continue to be a leader in programs which address these issues.
Keep DEI officers and programs throughout 2023 and beyond, if necessary. Don’t develop these
programs just for show, and then defund them. We all need SLO to be our model for how to run a
welcoming city.
In faith,
Gina Whitaker
