Ted Cruz recently released a database of "woke" DEI NSF awards. Exploring the data it is clear they just did a search with terms "homo" and "hetero" and "race". Some of their "woke" DEI awards include-

CRII: NETS: RUI: FUNDAMENTALS OF WIRELESS NETWORKING USING BATTERY-FREE DEVICES IN INHOMOGENEOUS ENVIRONMENTS

HETEROMOLECULAR INTERFACE DESIGN FOR BETTER MULTIFERROIC MOLECULAR SPINTRONICS

BUT ARE IMPORTANT PROBES FOR ASTRONOMY SINCE THEY CAN BE TRACED DIRECTLY BACK TO THEIR ORIGIN

From that grant's abstract: ADDITIONALLY, THE PROJECT?S LEADER, A WOMAN SCIENTIST, IS DEDICATED TO BRIDGING THE GENDER GAP IN SCIENCE THROUGH SPECIAL CAMPS AND WORKSHOPS, EMPOWERING THE NEXT GENERATION OF FEMALE SCIENTISTS.

The grant is labeled with "JUSTICE" & "GENDER" in Cruz's spreadsheet.
