Society of Pediatric Psychology ‘Teaches Members How to be Activists’
“I strongly believe that championing equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) is not just the right thing to do, it is the smart thing to do”
There is not a single field of study that the left has not taken over. They are embedding their agenda in virtually everything.
Campus Reform reports:
Pediatric psychology org teaches members how to be activists
The Society of Pediatric Psychology recently held its annual conference in Chicago. Materials and presentations given to attending child psychologists taught them how to be political activists.
A picture of a table display at the conference was tweeted with a QR code linking to a Google Drive folder containing different advocacy materials for the attendees. Campus Reform made copies of the documents before the folder became private.
One document provided links to various activist resources, including a link to a “Justice Action Toolkit.”
Another document contained in the Google Drive was a publicly available “Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Framework” booklet released by the American Psychological Association (APA).
“I strongly believe that championing equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) is not just the right thing to do, it is the smart thing to do,” writes APA CEO Arthur C. Evans in the booklet. “As we implement our strategic plan, EDI serves as a critical lens to drive our strategic priorities and measure the magnitude of our impact. It is essential that we embed EDI throughout all aspects of our work.”
The booklet also affirms the APA’s “long-term coordinated strategy [to] dismantl[e]racism.”
Another document, also publicly available, to be found in the cache was an “APA Resolution on Advancing Health Equity in Psychology.”

Psychology is always easy pickings for people pushing crazy ideas because it is a field without rigor and it attracts people who like that.
Seems like CRT/DIE/intersectionality got into medical and veterinary schools around the same time it started taking over psychology programs.
Is any field rigorous enough to resist these doctrines?
