Nearly three centuries later and 12 weeks into a new United States presidential administration, that foundation is beginning to crack. Sweeping federal actions have defunded research, dismantled diversity efforts, and targeted international students — policies that clash with the very ideals Franklin set forth. Now, as we stand before his creation, our home, it raises a difficult question: Do we rebuild it into something easier to accept, or fight to preserve what it was always meant to be?

I think it’s fair to say that the three most controversial letters in the English language today are D, E, and I. To some, diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives are a long-overdue recognition of how American institutions systematically disadvantage people of color and members of the LGBTQ+ community. To others, they are a grand Marxist conspiracy hell-bent on granting historically oppressed classes special privileges. The word has been used as a political litmus test for so long, however, that I fear we’ve stopped considering that it might be neither.
