Because black, gay, transgender hemlocks deserve an understanding ear

Donecker describes herself as an 'accomplice to marginalized communities' who lives with her wife, Jai, an adopted nine-year-old, and two cats.
A diversity, equity and inclusion expert [Here’s hope: Axios: A Second Donald Trump Term Would Empower Populists to Steamroll Experts — Ed] had her former boss placed on administrative leave for reportedly prioritizing merit over personal identity when hiring new employees, according to a report.
Megan Donecker, who formerly served as the Oregon Department of Forestry’s DEI strategy officer, complained about the agency's management, criticizing her boss Mike Shaw for looking "beyond gender and identity in hiring, seeking only candidates most qualified for the job," OregonLive reported.
Shaw served as the agency's second-in-command under State Forester Cal Mukumoto until he was placed on administrative leave on Aug. 6 after Donecker filed a formal complaint against him, the Daily Mail reported.
…. She also reportedly claimed that six queer staffers didn't "feel safe or comfortable" at work because they could not have "conversation around pronouns" and referred to the department as a "boys club," the Daily Mail reported, citing the formal complaint obtained by OregonLive.
And having fouled that particluar nest, this dreadful person (persx?) has moved on to another grift, because that’s what these people do:
The pink-haired, tattooed Salem resident has left the department and now works as a DEI consultant,
And, naturally, “Oregon's progressive Governor Tina Kotek - who was hit by a corruption scandal for hiring her wife - has also waded into the drama, with her office saying she backs all efforts to 'advance DEI.' “.
