Woke Reversal

the woke turnaround continues:

From the Associated Press: The changes, confirmed by Walmart on Monday, are sweeping and include everything from not renewing a five-year commitment for an equity racial center set up in 2020 after the police killing of George Floyd, to pulling out of a prominent gay rights index. And when it comes to race or gender, Walmart won’t be giving priority treatment to suppliers. Walmart’s moves underscore the increasing pressure faced by corporate America as it continues to navigate the fallout from the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in June 2023 ending affirmative action in college admissions. Emboldened by that decision, conservative groups have filed lawsuits making similar arguments about corporations, targeting workplace initiatives such as diversity programs and hiring practices that prioritize historically marginalized groups. The AP also reports that Walmart will no longer "feature sexual and transgender products aimed at minors," stop considering race and gender when choosing suppliers, and stop using "DEI" ( which stands for diversity, equity, and inclusion) in job titles and communications, among other practices.

No more wokeness here...
