Under Armour appears to be the next big corporation found to be forcing employees to undergo anti-white training sessions, a report says.
According to the Outkick, a whistleblower is reporting that the sportswear giant has mandated that employees take a so-called “anti-racism” course entitled “Above the Surface: Dominant White Progressive Narratives” that urges white employees to examine how they might be racist.
Under Armour “forced its white employees to participate in a training program that asked them to consider ways in which they might be racist.”
The course’s moderator even reportedly asked white employees how many “virtually all-white” funerals they had attended during their lives, insisting that not going to a minority funeral may prove the employee is racist. After asking that question, the moderator quickly interrupted, saying that she didn’t want to give whites time to think of their answer. She then told white employees that the question “should be something that you are thinking about if you are white for the rest of your life.”
In another part of the training, whites are told that saying “I was taught to treat everyone the same” is also racist.
The program’s host went on saying, “I’m hoping that those questions for most white people surface, that there’s a little more going on than ‘we just were taught to see everybody as equal.'”
According to the whistleblower, this particular training session was held in the Spring of 2020.
The training also attacked the white employees’ parents if their parents moved to a particular place to get their kids into “good schools.”
“Did your parents care about what kind of school you went to? If so, why?” the program asked Under Armor’s employees, adding, “How often had you had a teacher or professor of your own race(s)?”

I changed counties to get my son out of the HISD (Houston Independent School District) That was in 1980....he's a physicist today.
Theyve been on the “no buy” list for a long time anyway.
This would seem to violate civil rights laws. The employees should sue.
Racist freaks, sue them.
And people thought this was limited to Coke 🤣🤣🤣
Glad I’m retired since this nonsense does not help race relations, it screws them up. Whatever happened to the Golden Rule?
The aholes at Under Armour have created a hostile working environment.
The employees should sue the crap out of them, and secretly record this anti-white nonsense.
Hostile workplace for sure
If The issue is character, every color would consider their biases and prejudices. Selecting one color for racial education is racist.
School districts try to pull this on their employees all the time. If enough teachers complain about it, it magically goes away.
People should start filing discrimination and hostile work environment suits against these companies.
A friend just shared a letter she received about training she is supposed to take.
The letter asked her as a white person to remain quiet during the training session to allow people of color to feel comfortable being able to express themselves during the session.
She has to take the training or she will lose contracts.
We need to act now and organize. Start the class actions to put some amount of fear into these businesses.
Many large companies employ this radical anti white training. The HR people run by the anti American attorneys from Berkeley are heavily involved. You dare not say say anything negative, otherwise you are terminated from employment.
I laid out in the sun Tuesday it was a sunny 80 degrees uv 5 - I got me some less-white going on.
Yep.
It’s non binary Golden Showers now.
Woke companies like this treat their employees like captives. The notion that this kind of idiotic race hatred inducing indoctrination does not drive out experienced and valuable employees, is really self deluding. I would tell them where to stick it. Clearly some can’t, as they have families, and they rationalize that just shutting up and swallowing this filth is ultimately worth it. Crap.
How the hell is this not racist? We truly live in bizarro world.
“Under Armour Forced White Employees To Undergo ‘Antiracist’ Reeducation Program:”
Under Armour was a good company up to about 2 years ago.
They gave vets with an ID, a 20% discount. They sold their good stuff at the outlets and customized their jackets for farmers, vineyards and wineries. I ended up with some of these custom tops due to having relatives in the right places.
I have worn some of their tops for a decade plus.
They started heading into “Woke” last year.
Apparently, they are into a full “Woke” mode now.
