Spineless American Psychological Association cowers and caves in the face of First Felon Donald Trump's racist DEI executive order.

Ellen Barry reports about the latest outbreak of professional cowardice:
The American Psychological Association, which sets standards for professional training in mental health, has voted to suspend its requirement that postgraduate programs show a commitment to diversity in recruitment and hiring. 
The decision, by the organization’s commission on accreditation, comes as accrediting bodies throughout higher education scramble to respond to the executive order signed by President Trump attacking diversity, equity and inclusion policies. It pauses a drive to broaden the profession of psychology, which is disproportionately white and female, at a time of rising distress among young Americans.
