“The US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) announced today that the federal agency filed an action in federal court to compel NIKE, Inc to produce information related to allegations that the company discriminated against white workers, including as a result of NIKE’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion-related 2025 Targets and other DEI-related objectives,” says a press release from an agency that surprisingly still exists, thought they would’ve gotten DOGEd early on
“According to the EEOC’s court filing, the agency is investigating systemic allegations of DEI-related intentional race discrimination, specifically that NIKE may have engaged in ‘a pattern or practice of disparate treatment against white employees, applicants and training program participants in hiring, promotion, demotion, or separation decisions, including selection for layoffs; internship programs; and mentoring, leadership development and other career development programs,” the press release continued and come to think of it the EEOC probably did get effectively wiped out but there’s just a skeleton crew around to flex the regulatory powers for political revenge. Like is this the regime finally getting around to punishing Nike for signing Colin Kaepernick friggin six or seven years ago?
