Here’s the Scoop

In the latest affront to the principles of fairness and equality, corporate behemoths Target, US Bank, and Best Buy are collaborating with a diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) consultancy, the Rae Mackenzie Group, to stage a racially exclusive career fair. This event, dubbed the People of Color Career Fair, smacks of racial discrimination as it seemingly targets non-white individuals, sidelining white people purely on the grounds of their race.

The fair, scheduled for October in Minneapolis, Minnesota, has attracted a slew of sponsors including Delta Airlines, General Mills, the Minnesota Department of Education, and Minneapolis Public Schools. US Bank’s Chief Diversity Officer, Greg Cunningham, has enthusiastically endorsed the conference, revealing his company’s unwavering commitment to a skewed version of diversity that appears to uphold racial bias over meritocracy.

The Rae Mackenzie Group, in its audacious bid to promote racial recruitment, asserts that organizational success is unattainable without a workforce dominated by People of Color. This overtly discriminatory stance further undermines the notion of equal opportunities and fair play, favoring racial considerations over individual skills and qualifications.

It’s alarming that US Bank and Best Buy, who have previously partnered with McKinsey and Company to run professional development trainings that blatantly discriminated against white employees, are again endorsing racially exclusionary practices. Target, too, is no stranger to controversy, having weathered a boycott last year over its LGBT children’s clothing line and merchandise.

The growing trend of race-based discrimination, targeting white and Asian people, is becoming worryingly prominent in corporate America. Companies like NASCAR, IBM, Oracle, and the Kraft Group have been implicated in similar discriminatory practices in the name of DEI.

Yet, these corporations and the Rae Mackenzie Group remain unresponsive to criticism and requests for comment, leaving us to question how far they are willing to push their warped version of diversity at the expense of basic fairness and equal opportunity.
