Education diversity consultancy company sees American flags as ‘hate’ symbols

Dole, who referred to the American flag as a symbol of "hate," has been a vocal critic of those who push for equality over equity, arguing that the latter is necessary for a functioning society. She suggested in a 2023 LinkedIn article, for example, that without equity, people would resort to crime.

Epoch has managed to become a "national leader" in the field of DEI instruction, with its services being utilized in at least five public school districts and among numerous other education organizations. The company has claimed that it seeks to "create an inclusive culture that enables every person to reach his or her full potential."

In 2022, Dome published a book titled, "Let's Talk About Race," in which she urged those who spread the gospel of critcal race theory to use "compassionate dialogue" when attempting to convert non-believers.

"So what happens when you face someone who's actually resistant, doesn't believe white privilege or inequity exists?" she wrote, per an excerpt cited by Fox News. "If someone continues to resist that culture or climate after multiple interruptions, then you know they do not belong."

Dome went on to suggest that, "if you continue showing up compassionately to conversations but the other person refuses to give as much as they get, then sometimes that relationship is simply not a worthwhile use of your energy."

"Divorce can be a form of repair," she continued. "If a team member isn't willing to adjust ... then the repair may be to remove them from the team or organization."

"If you live in my community and you're starving," she wrote, "there's a good chance that one day you're going to end up stealing from me ... just to survive. On the other hand, if I have food and everything else I need, and I make sure you have everything you need, too, then I never have to worry about you coming in and harming me or stealing from me."

As Fox News reports, a California teacher who claimed to have attended one of Epoch's training sessions called it "insane."

Epoch Educaiton has worked with many local schools and groups.
