The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edelman.com\/trust\/2021-trust-barometer\">Edelman Trust Barometer<\/a> found that 62% of respondents believe companies are not doing enough to address racism within their organizations and the wider population. The survey also found that 74% of black respondents, 71% of Asians, 66% of Hispanics, and 60% of whites agreed with this statement. While a slight majority of Republicans agreed, two-thirds of Democrats also supported the idea.<\/p>\n<h3>Correcting Misconceptions About Diversity and Affirmative Action<\/h3>\n<p>Respondents also believe that companies should correct misconceptions about diversity and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/medical-professor-warned-colleagues-that-schools-racial-preferences-were-illegal-and-he-was-removed-from-directorship-now-hes-suing\/\" title=\"Medical Professor Warned Colleagues That School\u2019s Racial Preferences Were Illegal And He Was Removed From Directorship. Now He\u2019s Suing.\">affirmative action<\/a> in the workplace. They also want companies to provide training on how to identify misinformation about racism and systemic injustice.<\/p>\n<p>Another survey from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pewresearch.org\/social-trends\/2021\/05\/25\/americans-see-advantages-and-challenges-in-countrys-growing-racial-and-ethnic-diversity\/\">Pew Research Center<\/a> found that 56% of American workers believe that increasing diversity, equity, and inclusion at work is a good thing. However, only 32% of workers consider working somewhere with a mix of employees of different races and ethnicities as extremely or very important to them.<\/p>\n<h3>The Impact of Diversity Initiatives<\/h3>\n<p>While diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) have gained a larger foothold in the private sector, critics argue that proponents advocate for mingling racial or sexual identity with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/businesses-pulled-back-on-diversity-equity-and-inclusion-programs-this-year-new-report-finds\/\" title=\"Businesses Pulled Back On \u2018Diversity, Equity, And Inclusion\u2019 Programs This Year, New Report Finds\">critical hiring decisions<\/a>. They claim that this leads to a decline in overall profitability and efficiency as efforts to hire the most qualified candidates are deprioritized. Other skeptics note that moves claiming to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/federal-civil-rights-agency-canceled-conservative-speakers-testimony-over-aggressive-tone-against-racial-quotas\/\" title=\"Federal Civil Rights Agency Canceled Conservative Speaker\u2019s Testimony Over \u2018Aggressive Tone\u2019 Against Racial Quotas\">ensure equal opportunity<\/a> can also serve as a means to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/massive-share-of-workers-upset-companies-are-not-calling-out-racism-more-often\/\" title=\"Many workers are unhappy that companies are not speaking out against racism frequently enough.\">advance left-wing ideology<\/a> with respect to racial identity and oppression within workplaces.<\/p>\n<p>Despite these criticisms, many companies have adopted explicit goals to increase the number of racial minorities or females in their workforce or senior management. However, some conservative attorneys argue that these objectives violate the Civil Rights Act of 1964.<\/p>\n<p>The largest firms in the United States donated more than $37 billion to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-covid-19-relief-bill-includes-1-billion-to-advance-racial-justice-in-farming\/\" title=\"Biden COVID-19 Relief Bill Includes  Billion To Advance \u2018Racial Justice\u2019 In Farming\">social justice organizations<\/a> and efforts in the year after the death of George Floyd. A more recent analysis from earlier this year concluded that the number has since reached $83 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Government officials have also attempted to hire employees based on their race or sex. President Joe Biden endorsed an executive order to achieve diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility in the federal workforce, as well as a plan which includes an equity roadmap calling for policies that do not rely solely on prior salary history to create payment schedules.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many Americans want companies to speak out against racism, as per two surveys released on Wednesday.
