Race Grifter Al Sharpton Demands Black Boycott of Companies Scrapping DEI — Then Compares His Struggle to MLK and Rosa Parks

The notorious race grifter Al Sharpton is not happy about the scrapping of DEI programs.

Numerous companies, most notably Facebook and Amazon, have scaled back or scrapped their Diversity, Equity and Inclusion initiatives in the wake of Donald Trump’s return to the White House.

However, Sharpton believes that doing so amounts to a major civil rights violations and that his role fighting back is as important as that of Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks.

“Why do we have DEl? We have DEl because you denied us diversity, you denied us equity, you denied us inclusion,” Sharpton said at the Metropolitan AME Church in Washington D.C. on Tuesday.

“DEl was a remedy to the racial institutionalized bigotry practice in academia and in these corporations.”

”Now, if you want to put us back in the back of the bus, we gonna do the Dr. King-Rosa Parks on you,” he continued.

In a press release posted on social media, Sharpton said his non-profit, National Action Network, will form a council with a view to boycotting said companies.

“NAN and its allies form a council that over the next 90 days will examine what companies have shirked on their DEl commitments, as well as their profit margins,” he wrote.

“Two companies will then be subjected this spring to a boycott by Black Americans, whom McKinsey estimates will have a collective buying power of $1.7 trillion by 2030.”

MLK was not demanding a continued gravy-train of Fed.gov, printed money-and-debt handouts via bloated leftist democrat governments in blue cities and states.

Well, mostly not anyway.....

““Why do we have DEl?”
To institutionalize racism, that’s why. To make racism an entire, legalized industry.
Trump legitimately wiped it out. I’m proud of him.

He was lying about going to Minneapolis during the riots to bring peace. More likely to collect payments to stop the riots he was inflaming.

***Race Grifter Al Sharpton Demands Black Boycott of Companies Scrapping DEI — Then Compares His Struggle to MLK and Rosa Parks***

Many younger blacks do not know what Martin Luther King preached, stood for, died for. Like so many Americans, they have been deluded with lying propaganda that helps to make race baiters like Al Sharpton richer and richer. Presidential candidate Kamala Harris gave Sharpton 1/2 million dollars 💰 ❗ 💸💸💸

Sharpton is a whole clown show unto himself, especially now that he no longer has any influence whatsoever.

That Jew hating prick has lot of nerve to run his trap..people need to be hired based on MERIT, if you are QUALIFIED for the job not because they need to make some black quota nonsense..but for Sharpton, who hates whites, and honestly he hates blacks too, he says NOTHING NOT ONE PEEP when blacks are murdered on the streets of Chicago by other blacks, nah, cant make money off of that, but the second a cop kills a black suspect guess who pops his ugly mug out..hey AL, PAY YOUR TAXES
