Asset management company Vanguard hosted a diversity training in July asking white men to accept “uncomfortable” criticism about their implicit biases, footage obtained by The Daily Wire shows.

Vanguard, which manages over $7 trillion in client assets, hosted the event as part of its commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. In line with that commitment, Vanguard tapped a consultant to host a two-hour session called “The Critical Lever: Engaging White Male Managers in Advancing Diversity & Inclusion.”

“Unless you are actively including, you are likely accidentally excluding,” Laura Sherbin, managing director at diversity consulting firm Seramount, told more than 2,000 employees attending the event in-person and virtually on July 19, the footage shows.

In her own words, Sherbin described the session as an attempt toward “really ensuring … that white men, white male managers, are actively included in the DEI conversation” — although she made it abundantly clear that the nomenclature used in cited surveys was not meant to “superimpose an identity … on the white males who participated

I thought the primary objective of Vanguard is to make money for their investors and themselves, but what do I know? If they're so guilty about their heteronormativity and Whiteness,well, suicide is the sincerest form of self criticism. Just sayin'

I only deal with index funds at Vanguard. Those do not require much human intervention. Even dummies can run those funds.

I’ve muted our struggle session trainings.

I don’t comply and refuse to comply.

They give me money, I give them service and that’s as far as our relationship goes.

They must be making a ton of institutional money, because that is the only way they would promote this crap.

My daughter just had a 6 hour training day on this garbage last week. They basically told her she’s a racist even if she doesn’t know it. Maybe certain people should take a look at their behavior and decide that they need to do better. Stop blaming whitey for their shortcomings.

The only complaints and protestations about CRT I see are from right wing writers and conservative media. I don’t see anyone from these organizations pushing back. If they want it, they can have it.

Check out Strive.com. This one is creating a fund of energy stocks (DRLL) to compete with Blackrock. They intend to fight woke people & decision-making.

The founder of Vanguard must be spinning in his grave. My investments in Vanguard are there for one purpose only . TO MAKE MONEY!. I CGAS on diversity, or racial balance. I don’t care what color my money manger is, just so he/she/it will possess to Competence and Skill to manage my account to my monetary advantage. And I am a so-called “person of Color”

Get Wokeness out of my investments.

The only solution is everyone who has an account there must pull their account and move on. It’s the only way the message of disapproval can be driven home.
