Some context, this was about two months after George Floyd's death (5/25/20).

quote:

7/27/2020 1:20 PM

NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center Office of Diversity and Equal Opportunity and Office of Human Resources will host a facilitated forum with the workforce, “Let’s Talk II: An Employee Dialogue to Discuss Diversity, Inclusion, and Unity,” on Tuesday, July 28, from 9:15-10:45 a.m.

The forum will provide a safe space for awareness and understanding, using open dialogue and discussion to acknowledge and address what’s going on in the wake of recent civil rights injustices and events. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and share their thoughts during the forum, which will support and further cultivate Marshall’s culture of unity and inform the center’s next steps in bettering our workforce and environment.

Center Director Jody Singer will provide opening remarks and participate on a panel that will include moderator Paul McConnaughey, center deputy director; Audrey Robinson, chief counsel; Bobby Watkins, manager of the Human Exploration Development and Operations Office; Larry Mack, deputy director of the Office of Human Resources; Tiffany Russell Lockett, Mars Ascent Vehicle Assembly, Integration, and Test lead; and Traci Matthews, Cost and Labor Analysis team accountant. Employee Assistance Program Coordinator Dr. Terry Sterry will follow the panel with additional thoughts, and then the forum will be opened to questions and comments from attendees.

You’ll find a link to the Teams meeting here. Please be aware that Teams meetings are capped at 300 attendees. The meeting will be first come/first served until that capacity is filled.

For more information, contact Larry Mack, in the Office of Human Resources or Denise Smithers, of the Office of Diversity and Equal Opportunity.


Now that we're five years removed, what questions would you have like to ask this esteemed panel of NASA leadership?

NASA has been supplanted by SpaceX. They are a dim echo of their former selves. What credibility belongs to an institution that can no longer send a man into space?

The problem even now as most companies rid themselves of DEI HR, the damage is done and those hired by it are embedded in companies. Hard to get rid of them. It means a majority of people question anyone they do business or services with if the person is fully qualified.

Need work done on car? Are they DEI hire

Medical? DEI hire?

Taking a flight? DEI hire?

The list goes in and at every step people are wondering. Its killed our country.

They are a sad shell of their former self. Clinging onto their past. They haven’t accomplished anything of value in 50 years.
