Part of the problem here is that Wal-Mart does get sued in regions with large minority populations and large numbers of women in the jury pool, and the plaintiff counsel will frequently use an implicit "Wal-Mart's just a bunch of white men looking to oppress you" argument to sway the jury. Having a legal team that is 100% white male does not help.

Well, from the little scenario that you painted, it looks like Wal-Mart better take care of their own backyard before they start barking in others! No one is stopping Wal-Mart from choosing racially diversified law firms to represent them, so why don't they just shut the hell up and take care of their own business?

They're doing just that. The law firms they are talking to work under contract for Wal-Mart.
