Robby Starbuck, Tennessee political commentator and documentary filmmaker, said he expected a “David vs. Goliath fight” when exposing Walmart Inc. for its “woke” corporate policies, however, ended up in discussions with Walmart executives that resulted in an agreement about the company’s woke policies moving forward.
Since June, Starbuck has worked to expose multiple large American companies that push DEI (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion) initiatives in the workplace. Starbuck’s work to expose such policies have led the targeted companies to publicly reverse course amid backlash from consumers.
On Monday, Starbuck announced that Walmart was the latest company that would be dropping its “woke” corporate policies in response to questions about its practices.
Starbuck said Walmart, which is America’s largest employer with 1.6 million employees, offered seven total concessions, including ending its Racial Equity Center, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs, reevaluating its supplier contracts, and more.
