/1 @mcuban and others have suggested DEI policies in America do not constitute illegal race discrimination.

Nothing could be more untrue.

DEI employs illegal racial preferences, quotas, exclusions and glaring bigotry against whites, Asians and males.

Want receipts? Read on:
/2 We just filed a federal civil rights complaint against French pharma company, Sanofi.

The evidence strongly suggests Sanofi’s management has created a culture of systemic racism.

Sanofi’s “Diverse Slate Policy” requires the “Talent Acquisition team” for each role to present “a minimum of one person of color and one female in each slate presented to a hiring leader” to achieve “at least 50% diverse representation of 25% POC and 25% female representation.”Image
Image
/3 We filed another civil rights complaint against Macy’s.

Macy’s has a plan that explicitly instructs management to “[a]chieve more ethnic diversity by 2025 at senior director level and above, with a goal of 30 percent,” as well as to initiate a “12-month program designed to strengthen leadership skills for a selected group of top-talent managers and directors of Black/African-American, Hispanic-Latinx, Native American and Asian descent.”Image
Image
/4 We filed a lawsuit against Amazon for offering a $10,000 bonus to its delivery service partners- but only for those partners who are Black, Latino, or Native American. Whites and Asians are ineligible for this bonus.

This is a clear violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1866. Image
/5 We also sued Progressive Insurance for offering $25,000 grants to ten “black-owned small businesses to use toward the purchase of a commercial vehicle.”
Image
Image
/6 We filed a lawsuit against Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta, the Association of Independent Commercial Producers (AICP), and entertainment industry companies for engaging in racial discrimination.

Meta was producing a TV commercial with the ad agency BBDO and the production company Something Ideal, Inc. AICP’s members are responsible for 80-85% of all motion picture ads in the United States. The AICP created the Double the Line program, which creates extra positions on set only for “BIPOC” individuals.Image
/7 We secured a colossal victory for equality when Biden and his allies in Congress formally repealed a racially discriminatory farm loan-forgiveness program after we sued to have it declared unconstitutional. aflegal.org/major-victory-…
/8 We crushed the Biden Administration’s discriminatory relief program which awarded preferential treatment to select racial groups under the Restaurant Revitalization Fund. aflegal.org/biden-administ…
/9 Some programs even seek to distribute life-saving medical care based on race…

For example, Utah, Minnesota, and New Mexico rescinded their racist practice of distributing COVID-19 treatment based on race after we threatened legal action.
/10 Mars — the makers of M&M, Snickers, and other candy — openly touts its discriminatory quota "to increase racial minority representation among management in its U.S.-based consumer-packaged goods businesses by forty percent."

We filed a federal civil rights complaint against Mars last April.Image
Image
Image
/11 BlackRock has established “The BlackRock Founders Scholarship,” which unlawfully limits, segregates, and/or classifies applicants for employment based on race – a patent violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

We also filed a federal civil rights complaint against BlackRock for this illegal conduct.Image
/12 The list of companies engaged in this illegal, racist conduct goes on and on…

And we’re taking action against:

/13 All of these race-based programs and apparent quotas are illegal under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964: Image

/2 In 2020, parents in Loudoun County, Virginia, began speaking out against a variety of issues, including school closures, Critical Race Theory (CRT) curriculum, transgender bathroom and locker room policies, and the politicization of the Loudoun County School Board.
/3 In March 2021, the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office opened a criminal investigation into a private Facebook group called “The Anti-Racist Parents of Loudoun County.”

Members of the group — which included six school board members, the Commonwealth Attorney, and a member of the Board of Supervisors — discussed targeting parents who spoke out at school board meetings against school closures and CRT in Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS).
