Despite its status as one of the wokest companies in the world, including maintaining an official program to inject critical race theory into the field of programming, tech giant Google is facing a major lawsuit alleging it discriminates against black employees.
Even among the far-left tech giants of Silicon Valley, Google has a reputation for wokeness. The company invited Robin DiAngelo to give a talk on “white fragility” years before her presence became commonplace in corporate boardrooms. Its managers gave employees instruction manuals on recognizing “white dominant culture.” It maintains an entire program dedicated to “machine learning fairness,” the new academic disclipine attempting to blend critical race theory with computer science. And documents released through James Damore’s class-action lawsuit in 2018 revealed an atmosphere of unchecked, rampant hostility towards white males within the company.
As a whistleblower told Breitbart News in 2017, senior leaders at Google “focus on diversity first and technology second.”
Even with this track record, it appears Google cannot escape the litigious machine of Diversity Inc. The tech giant is now being sued by a black female employee who alleges that the company engaged in “systemic racism” against her. Employee April Curley is represented by notorious attorney Ben Crump.
Via the Daily Mail:
April Curley, 34, began working for Google in 2014 but was fired in September 2020.
On Friday, she said managers at the search engine company actively thwarted their career ambitions — steering them to lower-level jobs, paying them less and denying them opportunities to advance because of their race.
‘While Google claims that they were looking to increase diversity, they were actually undervaluing, underpaying and mistreating their black employees,’ said Ben Crump, Curley’s lawyer...

What’s good for the goose...oh, is that offensive to geese?
The problem here, with everything about this D&I crap, is that there’s no way to prove it. I’m sure Google will settle, and this grifter will “get paid,” but proving wrongdoing is going to be hard. This is why these companies do this D&I crap. It’s not about true belief but virtue signaling. It’s to cover their ass in exactly these cases.
I work for a big tech company, and when it comes around time to do the D&I training, I just refuse. I tell my boss that our customers are my priority, and I’ve yet to be reprimanded, held back for a promotion, a bonus, or a raise. I’m not going to sit through half a week of D&I courses to be told how my non-existent slaveholding ancestors exerted their privilege.
Hoisted by their own petard!!
That is the nature of blackmail.
The more you pay the more the blackmailer wants.
These huge corporations surrendered to the race baiters years ago and they will keep paying until they don’t.
When they stop I would love to be there with my truckload of popcorn. I will make a fortune on the concession.
It will be an event to remember.
Suffer and starve scum.
Bwahahahahahaha
😅😅😅😅😅😅👍
The answer is simple: Rules for thee and not for me. Liberals don’t have to follow the rules. That’s why they have to foist them on others.
How many hotshot black programmers does Google stand to lose if they all walk out?
The most shocking thing is that Google actually fired a black employee.
The more virtue you signal the less likely you are to have anything that remotely resembles virtue.
And people like that tend do some pretty terrible things because they regard themselves as actually better then the common herd.
It depends on how many came in by quota.
Hopefully this will encourage more grifters to sue Google. I’d like to see the number of people fealing victimized at Disney to step forward as well. While we’re at it, how about Coke, and Twitter, and Microsoft, and...
Hillary’s thesis title - “There is only the fight”
I can only wonder if Ms April Curley is simply another Affirmative Action scholar & employee who over values her worth. Could it be that she was so underqualified for whatever job Google put her in, that she was actually costing the company money?
Maybe she is only qualified to work as a janitor. Or is that janitoress?
Kinda like a certain vice president, I know of who is only qualified for the vice portion of the job. The rest is kinda OJT.
That IS truly shocking.
I’m usually against cases of this type. I’ll make an exception for this one.
Google are racist against MAGA.
