      Exactly and that is why you see a lot of black people working at Walmart cuz whites don't want to work for these small wages. And if we stopped working there it'll just be a bunch of Hispanics and half of them won't speak English to help you out so there goes the customer service and the stores will just go down the chute. But black Republicans was just laughing when Trump said I got some black jobs for you! 😱

    Philip you are exactly correct on this one... in the past qualified black applicants were not hired .... affirmative action was created by Richard Nixon as a remedy to what at that time was current discrimination.... if a company refused to hire a Black MBA for a job but picked a white High School graduate for a job that required an MBA then paid his college expenses to bring him up to the MBA while simultaneously denying the Black MBA the job he was qualified for, then the remedy was to make that company hire him for the next open position and pay him back wages... everyone agreed this was justified for the individual discriminated against. But it then got coopted to be a quota system for white upper middle class women.
    And the backlash began.

      Partially true! I'm not going to let black women off the hook that easy! Yes white women used black with to take advantage of affirmative action (DEI), but blk women had an advantage. Too many black women were hired for jobs and to turn around to look down on blk men was disloyal! Black women thought they made it to white people status even though many of them were not talented to hold that job! This election proved to blk women that they have been played! Just look at the elections results of how other races of women voted!

    It's so funny, the guy hired to bring back Red lobster from bankruptcy is black. And he's the same guy who bought back P.F. Chang's from bankruptcy. He did not need a D.E.I. push. If you have the skills and the ability to bring more revenue to that company they will hire you regardless of color. They're looking for the best candidate. Work on your skills gentleman, as I am doing.

    We tried to tell ya!!!! Only going to get worst. People complaining about how expensive items are, but I see us go to Walmart making purchases on Black Friday. This makes the rich even more richer, but then you have an issue with Walmart rolling back DEI. Well, the way I see it Walmart and other stores need us more than we need them. Exactly, observe the store if it’s not diversified then go somewhere else. Purchase what you need and not what you want. Save, Save and Save then Invest. You will not die if you decide not to buy a TV, purchase food and necessities only for a while. Go back to DVDs and/or VHSs and leave those streaming apps alone, pay 5.99 and up per month. We are more powerful than we realize.

    Here is the rub, we are at the bottom of the impact when it comes to giving out set asides, but we'll be at the top of the list when it comes to rolling back DEI. Just because something doesn't help you, doesn't mean it can't hurt you. I completely agree, DEI did not benefit us the way it was intended. But after 30+ years in corporate America, I can guarantee those that choose to will ensure maximum impact to black employees. They can't use it to get rid of black leadership because they never used it in that way. It will be interesting to see how they roll it back and who it impacts. We know clear women will continue to be a staple in leadership teams everywhere.

So i needed to do everything on a rare day off so I went into Wal-Mart to buy another pack of underwear, and all of them were locked. I had to buzz a button and wsit 45 minutes to get the pack, and they walked it over to the register for a pack of underwear that costs 6 dollars. And all I could think is who is stealing cheap 6 dollar for 6 pairs of underwear.
