Report: AT&T Offering Critical Race Theory Training Program: ‘White People, You Are the Problem’

AT&T — the world’s largest telecommunications company — offers an employee training program that teaches premises such as “American racism is a uniquely white trait” and “white people, you are the problem,” according to a new report. AT&T has disputed some of the claims in the report, and dismissed it as “misleading.”

According to internal documents obtained by journalist Christopher F. Rufo, AT&T launched an initiative called “Listen Understand Act” last year that is “based on the core principles of critical race theory, including ‘intersectionality,’ ‘systemic racism,’ ‘white privilege,’ and ‘white fragility.'”

A senior AT&T employee, who spoke to Rufo on the condition of anonymity, said managers at the company now face annual assessments on diversity issues, and there is “mandatory participation” in “race reeducation exercises.” The source allegedly told Rufo that white employees are “expected to confess their complicity in ‘white privilege’ and ‘systemic racism,’ or they will be penalized in their performance reviews.”

The initiative encourages employees to read a Chicago Tribune article written by Dahleen Glanton that says, “White people, you are the problem. Regardless of how much you say you detest racism, you are the sole reason it has flourished for centuries.” (Read more from “Report: AT&T Offering Critical Race Theory Training Program: ‘White People, You Are the Problem'” HERE)
