Sam’s Club CEO Ask Suppliers to Hire Minorities and Women Instead of ALL WHITE MEN, Called Racist

Sam’s Club black, female CEO Rosalind Brewer told CNN’s Poppy Harlow that she recently met with a supplier whose executive team was comprised of all white males. “Just today we met with a supplier and the entire other side of the table was all Caucasian males,” she told Harlow who asked her what she said to them.

“I decided not to talk about it directly with his folks in the room because there were actually no female, like, levels down,” she said. “I’m gonna place a call to him.” She also said she uses her position to “nudge,” Sam’s Clubs partners and suppliers to hire more minorities and women for the top spots.

It is refreshing to see a black woman with this much power looking out for her people. I personally think she deserves a round of applause. However, some of “white amerikkka” disagree. After doing this interview, most are calling her racist because she is looking only to push minority women into higher positions. What are your thoughts?
