Never Enough: Woke Google Sued By Black Employees For ‘Racism’
Breitbart ^ | 3-21-2022

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...

I hope Google loses big. Let their sanctimony and hypocrisy bite ‘em in the butt.

“The most shocking thing is that Google actually fired a black employee.”

“...began working for Google in 2014 but was fired in September 2020.”

So, after six years of moving her around to less challenging positions in an effort to at least keep her name and race on the books, even woke Google had to admit she wasn’t worth the trouble.

I was told by my Democratic neighbor that Democrats raise better behaved children.

I then asked her if more people in prison would say their mother was a Democrat than a Republican.

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.

What does OJT stand for?

Can you imagine what a pain in the ass this black woman must’ve been to get fired from one of the wokest companies?

I’m going to guess this thing wasn’t born a female either.

A whole lot of groups have jumped on to the DEI bandwagon so employers can satisfy its quotas from among them and will usually pick the better behaved minority over the troublemakers.

Well, they would need to meet a quota in that area as well, wouldn’t they? Otherwise, Google would be denying black employees the opportunity to collect unemployment as much as white employees.

That kind of business model is a guarantee for the failure of a business.

They would all be too afraid to walk out.

Google’s productivity and safety may actually increase.
