This hell site is making us all stupid. Trump doesn't have the ability to revoke the EEO (1972) or title VII of the civil rights act (1964). He rolled back Executive Order 11246 of 1965 which while shitty, only applies to federal contractors.

In the #metoo era, sexual assault policies are rooted in 19th-century laws and customs. @Devilnrae2 draws a compelling link between past and present, pointing to unexpected local #archives for important legal history research. clioandthecontemporary.com/2…
