This was the beginning of the end of Xerox, Kodak and many others.

Remember, the Board of Directors approved it before it was sent.

If the wrong people are placed on top, many more people will wind up on the bottom.

Not just the end of Xerox and Kodak, the end of Rochester.

It’s a parody of its former self now with the dumbthug “government” there that ghettoized the entire core of the city.

AT&T was doing the same thing, I remember the corporate motor homes that would pull up to college campuses and openly not want to talk to whites.

Before people learned to keep their intentions hidden the Texas Employment Office would openly tell you that this or that job was looking for non-whites only.

JFK signed the first Affirmative Action Bill in 1961.

Well they didn’t hire “The great Negro of the time” as Brandon puts it.

Recruiting minorities is good. It's important. But DEI is bad. Because we're in a situation where we have somebody like Claudine Gay who is checking all the boxes when she became the President of Havard.

But it's obvious that we have to correct our historical wrongs. But DEI is obviously not the way to do it

Xerox has two X’s, so they are female,

Unless they go trans.

Our past efforts, by and large, have sought to find only the best qualified people for Xerox, regardless of age, race or religion. But that goal, however valid, has inadvertently excluded many good people from productive employment. We are, accordingly, going to change the selection standards that screen out all but the most qualified people.

To the audience that saw this memo, they were honest. This evidence, plus similar statements and statistics from the early days of this Stalinist takeover of corporate America, will be crucial in the dismantling of the regulatory corruption that has been making war on American rights, culture, domestic tranquility, physical safety, prosperity, justice, and liberty.

Hundreds of thousands of people still living need to be prosecuted. Perhaps millions more need to be re-trained, retired, or fired--since their actions under color of law have deliberately deprived tens of millions of Americans of their Constitutional and legal rights over the decades, at an incalculable cost to their families' liberty and prosperity over generations.

In many cases, the malefactors knew what they were doing. Their only possible claim to clemency will be that they were "following orders."

The corporate bureaucracies in all 50 states will find this turn of events strange and alarming. The socialists, bureaucrats, and academics, and most Democrats might consider it a declaration of war. But it is only a recognition of the war that has been waged on our country for more than a half-century--a full century, if you count the private scheming, public deception, and widespread corruption that went into it.

When it is over--and may this war be only philosophical and political--hundreds of millions of Americans of all races will understand that they have no race. They will know that those who ask searching questions on that subject are not merely nosy, but are the enemies of our nation, and of God Himself.

And may freedom ring for a thousand generations.

Busing seemed like the beginning of the end for Rochester schools. No longer were the kids parents in the neighborhood, ‘teens’ were a little less accountable, and classrooms became more disruptive.

I worked for Xerox for five years. The annual sales award was known as Presidents Club and was always over-attended by women and BIPOCs. White males at the time used to joke than no suitcase at President’s club ever contained both Cruex and sunscreen
