Because they are based on a racist ideology, "'critical' race theory" and they are more akin to soviet style struggle sessions than any sort of actual training. In fact what is practiced in US would be probably illegal in a number of European countries.
Furthermore it's lower level employees that are subject to these "indoctrination" sessions, not higher ups that often treat low level employees like shit, no matter the race or sex.
So on one side, you are for victimizing low level employees, on the other, controversial management techniques that totally lack of any human empathy are never questioned.

In fact what is practiced in US would be probably illegal in a number of European countries. It might not be legal in the U.S. either, at least some of the stuff that's going on. TBD.
- joshuamorton 6y agoWhat do you believe critical race theory is? I don't see any relationship between it and struggle sessions. What trainings are you talking about? (my experience is that the extent of these trainings are that everyone must take the same thing, yes including the C-suite)
