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)?”

Right? And I thought Under Armour was one of the good guys! Buh-bye!
Human Resources used to be the help desk for issues with payroll, health insurance, time-off, dress code etc.
It has now become corporate thought police and behavior adjustment bureau.
I am five one (and a fraction) and normal sized and she was.... not.
I have to admit the embroidery was awesome. Maybe she wanted to frame it.
It sounds to me like Under Armour and Coke are actually trying to force a race war. Wow! Whodda thunk? In America!!! Yikes!!!
You might be thinking of Nike. Under Armour’s founder is a Republican, at least was when he started it.
Nike too. Underarmor too. Too many to list. Sad eh?
It started going bad when they changed from Personnel Department to Human Resources.
I’m sure there is a lot of tension in big companies today as they are forced to put unemployable tokens on the payroll as part of tax breaks (or just to avoid lawsuits); the negative white birthrate for several decades must be impacting the talent pool for low-skill or unskilled jobs (I’ve heard people from call centers - Americans! - who are unintelligible; wouldn’t have happened 20 years ago).
Another consequence of that negative birthrate is that many companies think this will go well as they look at a future (never mind - PRESENT) with a dwindling number of young white consumers; virtue-signaling to the otherized replacements and remnants is simply “marketing”.
I have switched from Coca Cola to Dr Pepper-—
And now Underarmor is on the boycott list.
A meter could be used to determine "the fair amount" of reparations.
