Critics of critical race theory and 'woke' corporations have targeted credit card giant American Express.
In interviews with Fox News Digital, the Manhattan Institute's Chris Rufo and author and Color Us United president Kenny Xu discuss their efforts to battle corporate wokeness at credit card giant American Express.designed to get credit card giant American Express to stop"racially divisive policies" that they feel are infiltrating many of the nation’s most prestigious companies.
"American Express is teaching its employees that the country was fundamentally racist, that capitalism was fundamentally oppressive and that their White employees were guilty of White privilege and internalized White supremacy. All of these horrific crimes based solely on their skin color," Rufo added.
Rufo shared some sources with Color Us United, and the group did its own research with additional sources inside the credit card giant. AMERICAN EXPRESS CRT TRAINING URGED STAFF TO ADOPT A HIERARCHY, PUTTING 'MARGINALIZED' ABOVE 'PRIVILEGED' In the trainings, the outside consulting firm Paradigm urged Amex employees to construct their own intersectional identities, mapping their"race, sexual orientation, body type, religion, disability status, age, gender identity [and] citizenship" on an official company worksheet. Employees could then determine whether they have"privilege" or are members of a"marginalized group.
"We want you to go to the dinner table, say you’re with a guest, and they pull out their American Express card, you say, ‘Hey, that’s a nice UnAmerican Express card you got there,’" Xu said, noting that the cardholder will ask what that means.
