  Donald Trump signed an executive order ending what he called quote "radical and wasteful" diversity, equity and inclusion programs in federal agencies. The purge echoing the racist actions of President Wilson Woodrow segregating the federal government during his term.

The MSN article discusses how former President Donald Trump's recent executive order banning diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs in the federal government echoes the racist policies of President Woodrow Wilson in 1913. Wilson, known for his segregationist views, implemented policies that segregated federal workplaces, effectively reversing progress made during Reconstruction. Trump's order, which critics argue undermines efforts to address systemic racism and promote inclusivity, is seen as a modern parallel to Wilson's actions, both reflecting a resistance to racial equity initiatives within the government. The article highlights the historical context of Wilson's segregation policies and draws a comparison to illustrate the continuity of such discriminatory practices in American political history.
