What is the so called Black leadership such as the NAACP doing to combat these companies rolling back DEI expect whining and complaining?

I think blaming black INDIVIDUALS for a SYSTEMIC issue misses the forests for the trees.

Even if we rounded up EVERY. SINGLE. Black millionaire and had them comment on the actions of people
within giant corporations, you cannot effectively make them DO shyt.

People of all colors have been royally fukked by the erasure of and erosion of employee's rights.
This is why Vivek and Elon Musk can talk about bringing H1B's in mass.

And the profit motive means a company will always look for a way to profit even at the expense of the works
in their employ.

The NAACP isn't really to blame even if it's likely staffed with a bunch of bloodsuckers.

The owners of Capital are always the problem.

Looking over these comments, I wanna start checking passports and hairlines. I never seen grown men so helpless, deflecting like females.

If the NAACP is full of nikkas like yall, I see how we got here.
People should read Rosa Park's autobiography. It was a struggle for the NAACP then, but it was a concentrated GROUP effort.

I'm not blaming individuals I'm just highlighting that it is alarming that our legacy civil rights organizations that won numerous battles in the past don't seem to be mounting any resistance to this stuff. The "supplier diversity" stuff helped create the little Black middle class that we have in this country and now that is starting to evaporate.

That's because all of civil rights victories were directly related to more militant actions.

Those are gone now and most aren't interested in investing in it they have fully bought into "Merit".

So there's no belief that there are bad actors in corporate America or other areas of employment.

People have fully bought into the idea that it's ALL individual failure.
