I'm at a math conference where an amazing speaker brought up this list; she was on it. People eligible for DEI funding are often encouraged to choose that channel over a "regular" channel, in which they might easily have been awarded funding. This inevitable adaptation is what happens when one puts filters on cigarettes, designs tax laws... To cut this funding for existing awardees would be overt discrimination. "Outreach" language is a requirement for NSF grants. I'm surprised that a majority of the grants overall didn't trigger their search filters. It is likely that they restricted their search to these DEI channels. Of course Ted Cruz knows this. What I don't know is if he's actually a bigot, or a maggot who knows his supporters are bigots.
