Congressional Black Caucus urges corporate America to recommit to diversity, equity and inclusion
The Hill ^ | 12/15/2023 | CHEYANNE M. DANIELS

Posted on 12/15/2023 12:18:22 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

The Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) is calling on corporate America to recommit to diversity, equity and inclusion promises, including $50 billion in investments, made after the 2020 murder of George Floyd.

In a corporate accountability letter, previewed by The Hill, the CBC asks corporations for an update on their racial equity investments and to work with the caucus to create legislative solutions that will help close the racial wealth gap.

“For years advocates have taken a front-row seat in this fight, working tirelessly to ensure the Black community prospers against these odds,” the CBC said in the letter. “It is past time to concentrate our efforts and equip our community with the necessary resources to close the racial wealth gap in America. The journey in front of us requires Corporate America to help drive an agenda that will power Black economic mobility.”

...after the 2020 murder of George Floyd

Note: Floyd wasn't murdered, but sanity was.

I demand the congressional black congress recommit to the Constitution of the United States and not a terrorist organization that has called for the destruction of the USA.

“The Congressional Black Caucus” is a RACIST Organization!!!

There NEEDS to be a counter to this blatant and deliberate RACISM by “The Congressional Black Caucus.”

In the Name of Almighty DEI there NEEDS to be a Congressional WHITE Caucus.

Time to shove their blatant RACISM down their throats for a change!!!

I “recommit” to DEI at least once a day, sometimes twice.

The woke agenda is hitting some bumps in the road. This is the beginning of a shakedown by Dems to keep wokeism alive.

Sorry, but my inherent white privilege prevents me from having anything to do with diversity,equity or inclusion if it involves non white minorities. FOAD

The solution to racism is always more racism.
And these days, since I want to be one of the Good Guys, I try to be as racist as I can.

"Congressional Black Caucus urges corporate America to recommit to diversity, equity and inclusion"

The Congressional Black Caucu is urging something that gives aid and comfort to the domestic and foreign enemies of the United States. The Constitution has a word for that.

“equip our community with the necessary resources to close the racial wealth gap in America”

Yeah, $50 BILLION would be a nice downpayment...say a 1% downpayment.

These grifters will never give up the grift. It’s nothing but “gibs me dat” writ large. Same MO — shake down society and whitey.
