CEO Media Blitz to Reach Broader Audience

Center for Equal OpportunityUncategorized

The Center for Equal Opportunity has been stepping up its media efforts to take our message to an even broader audience. CEO Chairman Linda Chavez appeared on the BBC News Channel several times recently to discuss recent court rulings to rein in immigration enforcement activities in Minnesota.

On Sunday, February 22, Ms. Chavez will be profiled for an hour by philanthropist David M. Rubinstein on CSPAN’s America’s Book World, where she will discuss her work at CEO, her long career in civil rights, and her books. Check your local listings.

CEO general counsel Shawna Bray was recently quoted prominently in a major Washington Post story on illegal DEI. Ms. Bray said that the EEOC is correcting for past administrations that “used the tools in the toolbox to push things up to, and even over, the line because of their goals,” especially with DEI and other social issues.

The Post story continued, “the EEOC should ‘have in mind an even application of our civil rights,’ regardless of factors such as race, gender and religious background, Bray said. ‘The desire to put a thumb on the scale was never consistent with that.’”

Ms. Chavez will be a guest on the upcoming PBS show “To the Contrary” to discuss news of the week.

She recently gave a talk on her latest book, The Silver Candlesticks: A Novel of the Inquisition, at The Streicker Cultural Center in New York City. She talked about the longest sustained period of anti-Semitism during the 400-year Spanish Inquisition and how it once again is rearing its ugly head, even in the United States.  Her talk can be viewed here.

She will also launch her new podcast “Older, Wiser” on “The Next Move” on Substack this month.  One of her first interviews will be with National Review’s Andrew McCarthy to discuss the state of the rule of law in an age of populism. Stay tuned for information on airings.
