There’s already EOE equal opportunity employment for decades. DEI isn’t necessary. It’s a Democrat ploy to divide people and not actually fix anything. There’s several DEI hires of multiple races that done a worst job before it was a thing. The quality decrease because of it. DEI ideologies is why they wasting kids education by teaching them things that don’t matter in the real world like gender identities and etc.
@@ninadaly7639 no and let me tell you why because if I’m not good enough to shop your stores I’m keeping all of my coins. It’s better to save anyway. This economy works both ways you need it stimulated but if you say, I’m a DI higher and I can’t work in your store. OK well then I can’t shop there now. Let’s look at Black Friday. It was empty. The rich are gonna have a rollback Christmas too.
Philip you are exactly correct on this one... in the past qualified black applicants were not hired .... affirmative action was created by Richard Nixon as a remedy to what at that time was current discrimination.... if a company refused to hire a Black MBA for a job but picked a white High School graduate for a job that required an MBA then paid his college expenses to bring him up to the MBA while simultaneously denying the Black MBA the job he was qualified for, then the remedy was to make that company hire him for the next open position and pay him back wages... everyone agreed this was justified for the individual discriminated against. But it then got coopted to be a quota system for white upper middle class women. And the backlash began.
Partially true! I'm not going to let black women off the hook that easy! Yes white women used black with to take advantage of affirmative action (DEI), but blk women had an advantage. Too many black women were hired for jobs and to turn around to look down on blk men was disloyal! Black women thought they made it to white people status even though many of them were not talented to hold that job! This election proved to blk women that they have been played! Just look at the elections results of how other races of women voted!
This is what happens when you let other grows co-opt your struggle and create false alliances for their benefit. Don't let them use black lives to push weirdo agendas
I began the boycott once I learned Walmart supports trump, but I didn't think this was going to happen - all things considered. Its Walmart. Thought it would be hard to stay away. Turns out I have no problem boycotting anything and anyone who support trump.
This is not about hiring people...The Walmart DEI situation is about their SUPPLIER DIVERSITY PROGRAMS. These are small businesses that SELL products to Walmart. They're now looking for small businesses that manufacture their products in the USA. All races and genders are welcomed to meet with Walmart buyers under this program.... THIS IS NOT ABOUT HIRING!
Poster coming through with the goods 👍. Question is, will these small (Black) vendors be pushed to the side in the name of "Anti DEI"? This is an important issue we need to track as Black folks.
@@TheBantuIsraeliteYes, by all means track it if you like. Or better yet, YOU become the next Sam Walton and do business with all Black suppliers. As it stands, Wal-Mart's workforce is made up of 28.8% of African Americans. This percentage is more than any other ethnic group that works there.
I don't think our people know that not shopping in these places is effective. I'm hearing people say that Black owned places charge too much for the same items or for me they hire people who don't care about customers and who have very bad attitudes as soon as you walk in.

Exactly if they want equal rights an equal treatment. Then that means that they get no special treatment they get treated like every one else. That's why it's called equal treatment. It's not hard to understand that simple fact. They say that they want to have the same rights and equal treatment. But what they mean is they want special treatment an to have more rights then other people.
@@souschef4489 Yes now there is general rules in place that clearly says. That a completely or business cannot discriminate or not hire someone based on their gender ,race or skin color or disability. So that means that there is no need for DEI programs whatsoever. Because if you found out that they didn't hire you. Because say for example you are black you can sue them. So there is no need for DEI programs.
That happened to me at Wal-Mart. I forgot to scan the Dog Food in my cart, but what I always do is look at my receipt to make sure I bought it and when I didn’t, I marched my butt right back to the checkout and pay for it. Always be sure to account for every item.

Sorry but I can’t agree with this, I’ve been to several Walmart stores and have never been to one that didn’t have a work crew of people with different race backgrounds, even in areas that are predominately a specific (any) race, and I’m talking about for years.
It's so funny, the guy hired to bring back Red lobster from bankruptcy is black. And he's the same guy who bought back P.F. Chang's from bankruptcy. He did not need a D.E.I. push.

No disrespect to DEI, however Walmart doesn’t pay its workers a living wage, some of the workers need government assistance. The issue is not DEI but paying your employees a living wage with benefits
FAAAAXXXX. Amazon and Walmart want "laborers" and dont really have a pathway to higher management. Ask yourself....who do you see mostly working at Walmart and delivering your Amazon packages?
Now you can boycott Walmart if you want but if they close down where will you get your food for thought? Ask yourself is this what they want us to do? It was predicted a FAMINE IS COMING.
NO MORE WALMART FOR ME! I'm finding everything I need in our Black Owned Busineses and elsewhere. It's easy. NO LOWES, TARGET, BASKIN ROBBINS, DOLE FRUITS either!✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
You should look into thosr boycotts. There were cities that had separate black owned bus lines. With black drivers nd black mechanics.... and as soon as the buslines were desegrgated... all the black owned buslines went out of business.
We tried to tell ya!!!! Only going to get worst. People complaining about how expensive items are, but I see us go to Walmart making purchases on Black Friday. This makes the rich even more richer, but then you have an issue with Walmart rolling back DEI. Well, the way I see it Walmart and other stores need us more than we need them. Exactly, observe the store if it’s not diversified then go somewhere else. Purchase what you need and not what you want. Save, Save and Save then Invest. You will not die if you decide not to buy a TV, purchase food and necessities only for a while. Go back to DVDs and/or VHSs and leave those streaming apps alone, pay 5.99 and up per month. We are more powerful than we realize.
And football too. Remember Colin Kapernick ? The beauty supply strike that bought the women back to give business was for them to have a 50% off sale? Walmart will still thrive and I'm not a fan of Walmart.
Walmart treats everyone like a criminal.... i don't usually go to Walmart but it was near a branch of my bank a branch of the local grocery chain, an the place I go to get a haircut. So i needed to do everything on a rare day off so I went into Wal-Mart to buy another pack of underwear, and all of them were locked. I had to buzz a button and wsit 45 minutes to get the pack, and they walked it over to the register for a pack of underwear that costs 6 dollars. And all I could think is who is stealing cheap 6 dollar for 6 pairs of underwear.
You better believe they're going to hide a migraine stay easier employees they nicer to customers come on I'm a black person I ain't out there no more but I know this your FBA you're screwed up it's over😢😮
Proud Walmart shopper.. Black folk always concerning themselves with stuff that doesn't pertain to us..DEI does not benefit us AT ALL Just like AFFIRMATIVE Action did not..
If it didn’t benefit no black people why are so many black women raising hell over it. Let’s be frank affirmative action nor DEI didn’t benefit black men or black boys.
Black people are much to uninformed they just go with whatever the masses are saying none of these programs really benefit black people and for damn sure not black men
Companies and Corporations should never have given in to the DEI madness. Walmart is doing nothing wrong. Who cares about whining crying ravist black people?
Man please , people always talking about boycottig something... gice it a moment and people will be right back up in there as usual.... And these corporations know that too... They're banking on your short term memory
What DEI programs? Them folks hire who they want to hire anyway. How do we know what's going on in the backroom? We don't, so we need to get our own businesses and do the same thing. The "folks" been doing that behind the scenes.🙄🧐 Just like we need to move in silence like they do. That includes funding and financing businesses (crowd funding).
Here is the rub, we are at the bottom of the impact when it comes to giving out set asides, but we'll be at the top of the list when it comes to rolling back DEI. Just because something doesn't help you, doesn't mean it can't hurt you. I completely agree, DEI did not benefit us the way it was intended. But after 30+ years in corporate America, I can guarantee those that choose to will ensure maximum impact to black employees. They can't use it to get rid of black leadership because they never used it in that way. It will be interesting to see how they roll it back and who it impacts. We know clear women will continue to be a staple in leadership teams everywhere.
I work at Walmart and help the elderly shop, help everybody that wants to use self checkout checkout, and bag. I feel everyone is equal and should receive the service and respect rightfully earned
DEI was not working. It has been disastrous. I'm not sure who was writing the rules for DEI. But it's been causing more problems by way of confusion than benefits.
No one has taken note of these corporations DEI initiatives till now. In addition most hires at a lot of these retail conglomerates and others, hiring and community awareness is a judgment call in some cases. This clearly is a political move that may cost them dearly....and thanks Phil for the awareness..
This is nothing new for me to hear about DEI. The state i live in, this agenda been happening since i was born and that was in 1977 These companies will fail
Also, it became a crime for black women to not get on the buses to then be transported to work to go to work under the folks. The police officers were beating black women to force them onto the bus.

You get denied,,,and when you look at the campus,,,ummm you notice there is "NO"body that "looks" like you but this is the top school for your career...you asks why with the grades you got why you werent accepted...AND NOW THEY DONT EVEN HIDE ANYTHING and tell you Mr DeQuan maybe you should go down to Morehouse or another historic college,,,Now are you going to take that "advice" you just wrote?
Sooooo glad this practice ended! It’s not about the poor black victims but this who don’t understand or can’t speak English! Hire on qualification, experience and education please
They see DEI as black ppl period. They consider the qualified black men in high positions as DEI. You cannot separate black men from black women when you talk about DEI. THEY MEAN ALL OF BLACK PPL.
Too many Black Podcasters told Black people not to vote for Democrats and Kamala, they told Black people to vote for Republicans, and Trump! All of them including you Phil were absolutely wrong!! Now, Black people will pay the price for Trump winning or for voting the Couch! I stopped listening to this Podcast for that reason!
The black dollar is a black vote! Oh, $h!t! Vote with your dollars. Stop patronizing businesses that don't have you in their best interest.

@ToryonDavis:They know who's qualified. They will use your skills and ideas and dump you when you are all used up.
No disrespect to DEI, however Walmart doesn’t pay its workers a living wage, some of the workers need government assistance. The issue is not DEI but paying your employees a living wage with benefits
But they have to do business with small business owners... Take away the DEI and a lot of minorities will be cut out.
FAAAAXXXX. Amazon and Walmart want "laborers" and dont really have a pathway to higher management. Ask yourself....who do you see mostly working at Walmart and delivering your Amazon packages?
Now you can boycott Walmart if you want but if they close down where will you get your food for thought? Ask yourself is this what they want us to do? It was predicted a FAMINE IS COMING.
NO MORE WALMART FOR ME! I'm finding everything I need in our Black Owned Busineses and elsewhere. It's easy. NO LOWES, TARGET, BASKIN ROBBINS, DOLE FRUITS either!✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Mr. Scott, merit is for EVERYBODY!!
You’re not even legally obligated to stop at the greeter/checker guarding the exit.
Love giving them an enthusiastic “no thank you!” 😂
Shy from Philly 🌺 Hello Phil and the diaspora family ❣️✊🏼💯
Hello Shy, I've been seeing your cute greetings for years.
Cincinnati B1 ✊🏾 💯 👊🏿
You should look into thosr boycotts.
There were cities that had separate black owned bus lines. With black drivers nd black mechanics.... and as soon as the buslines were desegrgated... all the black owned buslines went out of business.
We tried to tell ya!!!! Only going to get worst. People complaining about how expensive items are, but I see us go to Walmart making purchases on Black Friday. This makes the rich even more richer, but then you have an issue with Walmart rolling back DEI. Well, the way I see it Walmart and other stores need us more than we need them. Exactly, observe the store if it’s not diversified then go somewhere else. Purchase what you need and not what you want. Save, Save and Save then Invest. You will not die if you decide not to buy a TV, purchase food and necessities only for a while. Go back to DVDs and/or VHSs and leave those streaming apps alone, pay 5.99 and up per month. We are more powerful than we realize.
You all are delusional.
I wish we would build our own banks, schools and stores. Come on black billionaires and millionaires.
I'm fine with people boycotting Walmart. Hopefully it will lead to less people in pajamas, furry slippers, and shower caps.
I stopped shopping at Walmart because they have no stock on the shelf.
I remember when black people said they were going to boycott Gucci. We see how that turned out! 🤷🏽♀️
😂😂😂😂😂😂
And football too. Remember Colin Kapernick ? The beauty supply strike that bought the women back to give business was for them to have a 50% off sale? Walmart will still thrive and I'm not a fan of Walmart.
Gucci is boycotting me😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I’m tired of the DEI nonsense anyway…
You should only be dealt with based off meritocracy.
You're wrong. Tell the truth. You've been wrong for a while. Please stop gas lighting.
That sellout will never do that. He’s a Republican shill.
Walmart treats everyone like a criminal.... i don't usually go to Walmart but it was near a branch of my bank a branch of the local grocery chain, an the place I go to get a haircut. So i needed to do everything on a rare day off so I went into Wal-Mart to buy another pack of underwear, and all of them were locked. I had to buzz a button and wsit 45 minutes to get the pack, and they walked it over to the register for a pack of underwear that costs 6 dollars. And all I could think is who is stealing cheap 6 dollar for 6 pairs of underwear.
…..STOP stealing..
That’s cause too much ppl steal…tf you expect!
That's due to stealing dollar general does the same .
they used DEI to hire migrants..
You better believe they're going to hide a migraine stay easier employees they nicer to customers come on I'm a black person I ain't out there no more but I know this your FBA you're screwed up it's over😢😮
You guys seem to not realize that it is used to do business with vendors.
@garygnu8775 2% is not working for FBA ..do you realize that
Where I live Blacks work in and shop at Walmart in large numbers.
Proud Walmart shopper.. Black folk always concerning themselves with stuff that doesn't pertain to us..DEI does not benefit us AT ALL Just like AFFIRMATIVE Action did not..
If it didn’t benefit no black people why are so many black women raising hell over it. Let’s be frank affirmative action nor DEI didn’t benefit black men or black boys.
And for every penny you spend there a percentage goes to the maga party..it’s bigger than just DEI.
Then you should be pleased.
Black people are much to uninformed they just go with whatever the masses are saying none of these programs really benefit black people and for damn sure not black men
lol shopped there today
Companies and Corporations should never have given in to the DEI madness. Walmart is doing nothing wrong. Who cares about whining crying ravist black people?
I never cared for Walmart and prefers Target over Walmart .
I never cared for either store.
Some People In Food Deserts can only shop at Walmart!!
East St Louis, Illinois is a prime example
Man please , people always talking about boycottig something... gice it a moment and people will be right back up in there as usual.... And these corporations know that too... They're banking on your short term memory
We need to build Black WallStreet in every major city in America!
What DEI programs? Them folks hire who they want to hire anyway. How do we know what's going on in the backroom? We don't, so we need to get our own businesses and do the same thing. The "folks" been doing that behind the scenes.🙄🧐 Just like we need to move in silence like they do. That includes funding and financing businesses (crowd funding).
Here is the rub, we are at the bottom of the impact when it comes to giving out set asides, but we'll be at the top of the list when it comes to rolling back DEI. Just because something doesn't help you, doesn't mean it can't hurt you. I completely agree, DEI did not benefit us the way it was intended. But after 30+ years in corporate America, I can guarantee those that choose to will ensure maximum impact to black employees. They can't use it to get rid of black leadership because they never used it in that way. It will be interesting to see how they roll it back and who it impacts. We know clear women will continue to be a staple in leadership teams everywhere.
I work at Walmart and help the elderly shop, help everybody that wants to use self checkout checkout, and bag. I feel everyone is equal and should receive the service and respect rightfully earned
Thank you!
Not my people. Not my problem.
the majority of Walmart, you go to the people there speak no English.. Black people need to understand they are not talking to us
You don't even respect our ancestors Dr King's and brothers and sisters from that time you disrespected them mad times and videos😮😮😮
Fortunately, I don’t need to shop at Walmart. They pulled out of my area completely, so bye-bye!!!
I drove in by Walmart to
Food 4 Less just because of there rollback! No DEI programs or rollbacks No funds from me!!
This stuff is over my head. I am just going to keep shopping at Walmart for my budget.
Walmart will never be the same as long as Sam Walton is in his grave.
Don't forget about Sam's Club is also part of Walmart
I stopped entering my race on job applications because I never got an interview when I did
Good for Walmart
"Why crying now you'll was saying Trump 2024 baby"
We gave you target you ain't getting Wal mart
I did not stop at Walmart on Black Friday because I didn't need anything. I will make it my habit to go there as much as I can going forward.
DEI was not working. It has been disastrous. I'm not sure who was writing the rules for DEI. But it's been causing more problems by way of confusion than benefits.
No one has taken note of these corporations DEI initiatives till now.
In addition most hires at a lot of these retail conglomerates and others, hiring and community awareness is a judgment call in some cases. This clearly is a political move that may cost them dearly....and thanks Phil for the awareness..
This is nothing new for me to hear about DEI. The state i live in, this agenda been happening since i was born and that was in 1977
These companies will fail
Walmart is economical for me.
Also, it became a crime for black women to not get on the buses to then be transported to work to go to work under the folks. The police officers were beating black women to force them onto the bus.
I don’t care what they roll back. I’m not going back to Walmart.
I kinda fell back from shopping at walmart and I uesd to work there to and feel once you paycheck it look so small, its like damn why Im still working here smh .
The question I have is why is this the headline when DEI is an ISO standard
Walked into Target in Henderson, NV. 1 FBA .
Everyone else Latino. The majority did not speak English!!
YES this is the reason I posted this information on my Facebook so our people wouldn't shop at Walmart especially in black Friday
….no free stuff for you😋
Trump SCOTUS is a joke !! Thank MAGA for voting Trump back in hope he does everything you voted for !!! He has promised so much tariffs mass deportations and more hope u are ready for it all
Walmart is a joke
….that boycott is the joke🫡
@@thepoeticbutcher3370 black americans are one of the least perchasers of boycott. 2025 and Trump are a new day. Blacks don't dictate American culture anymore. Uncle Phil needs to have a seat lmfao
The joke is you black people like me thinking that you're going to hurt Walmart by staying out of their stores they actually would love that and not only them all of the Giant conglomerates😂😂
@@OgOg-p2v 1000 percent facts
@@astroprotector dude aint one of us! Dont be deceived!! Look at his talking points!!
They will find out who really does the stealing
Huh. I did not know we were entitled, to get a job cause of our race, I shop at Walmart yesterday,
Walmart is a Sickening place to shop . I avoid them at all costs !
This whole DEI thing is goofy. If u are qualified then just get in where u fit in. If not, get better
Lies qualified blk people get over looked
Its not goofy
Them white ain’t going to hire you if you better be real
@nubianking4203 Spot on, exactly!
Let me give a example of how crazy some sound....DEI = affirmitve action lets just be honest about it. Bunch of morons slap a NEW Title that people dont like and wala!....So let me give you a example....
You are DeQuan makes 90s on his test and applies to say Emory or MIT, And Bob makes the same grades and applies to the same school. You get denied,,,and when you look at the campus,,,ummm you notice there is "NO"body that "looks" like you but this is the top school for your career...you asks why with the grades you got why you werent accepted...AND NOW THEY DONT EVEN HIDE ANYTHING and tell you Mr DeQuan maybe you should go down to Morehouse or another historic college,,,Now are you going to take that "advice" you just wrote?
If Walmart is boycotted for just one week they will feel it
Good stuff sir 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Sooooo glad this practice ended! It’s not about the poor black victims but this who don’t understand or can’t speak English! Hire on qualification, experience and education please
All this is Philip Scott's fault y'all😮
😂😂😂😂
End DEI. The strong independent women will be just fine. Just ask them.
They see DEI as black ppl period. They consider the qualified black men in high positions as DEI. You cannot separate black men from black women when you talk about DEI. THEY MEAN ALL OF BLACK PPL.
Too many Black Podcasters told Black people not to vote for Democrats and Kamala, they told Black people to vote for Republicans, and Trump! All of them including you Phil were absolutely wrong!! Now, Black people will pay the price for Trump winning or for voting the Couch! I stopped listening to this Podcast for that reason!
bingo.
DEI made things worse its all by merits and qualifications and not by color or gender.
Sound just like a yt trump supporters. Idiots lol
exactly!
It should be merits and qualifications but that is not always how it is. It's often about who you know.
