The decision by Gov. Mike Braun to replace DEI — Diversity, Equity and Inclusion — with MEI — Merit, Excellence and Innovation — isn't sitting well for some Hoosiers. "With the swipe of a pen, he rolled it back 50 years in the state of Indiana," said Rev. Dr. Wayne Moore, of Olivet Baptist Church and president of the Baptist Minister's Alliance. Moore and Rev. David Greene Sr. say they were appalled at Braun's executive order. "We were underperforming in terms of DEI already as a state in terms of Black businesses, minority businesses, getting business in Indiana, so to come out and say, 'OK, we're going to eliminate that from day one was just alarming,'" said Greene Sr., pastor of Purpose of Life Ministries and president of Concerned Clergy of Indianapolis.
