Dems Push ‘Racial Equity Audits’ to Control Big Tech Even MORE: Report

Democrats and black-money groups are pushing for “racial equality audits” that would allow Big Tech companies to do as they please.

As if the race hustlers of the far-left weren’t powerful enough, Democrats are pushing for race politics to dominate Big Tech decisions. “Democrats want to subject tech companies to mandatory ‘racial equity audits’ conducted by their political allies, a move which could cement the party’s control of Silicon Valley,” The Washington Free Beacon reported Dec. 13. Free Beacon illustrated that these audits promise to make the already left-leaning tech world into a series of openly far-left ideologically partisan organizations: “[I]In practice, auditors of equity often encourage companies to employ more Left-wing activists, former Democratic Party officials and often even from their own organizations. The audits also call for the abolition of standards of ‘merit’ and the ability for a special executive to veto any company project.”

Free Beacon summarized that organizations like Color of Change have “already succeeded in using racial equity audits to shape big tech policy.” It cited examples such as when the organization “successfully pushed Facebook into completing an audit that called for more restrictions on Trump’s posts,” “pushed for Trump to be permanently banned from the platform,” and even “hired an Obama administration Justice Department official to lead the company’s civil rights strategy.”

It is well-known that Big Tech has a poor representation of conservative Christians. However, Color of Change and other liberal organizations focus more on race. Free BeaconColor of Change quoted the rhetoric calling for “hiring people from underrepresented groups” and “establishing a critical mass of workers that understand and are sensitive to the effects of white supremacy, anti-Blackness in all work streams vertically and horizontally.”

The BeaconAlso, racial equality audits serve two purposes: to scrutinize corporations in order to get cash; and as political weapons.

“Racial equity audits are the chief service offered by ‘diversity, equity, and inclusion’ consultants, a cottage industry connected by a revolving door of Democratic staffers and funded by liberal donors. School districts pay handsomely to equity auditors for their services in revamping curricula. Washington Free Beaconhas reported. Now, racial equity auditors are setting their sights on corporate America.”

Far from the “get woke, go broke” adage, companies like the Ford Foundation have reportedly profited handsomely from embracing liberal race politics: “Ford Foundation president Darren Walker claims audits can help ‘the nation’s most successful businesses to become better businesses,’ and that implementing the recommendations of audits could increase the United States’ GDP by up to 20 percent,” Free Beacon recounted.
