Carl Weber

I hate watching TV shows or movies that have folks playing golf who clearly cannot swing a golf club. This character on @BET’s Carl Weber’s The Family Business, Alexander Cora, hit a so-called hole in one. Not with that awful ass swing! 😂😂😂

DEI was created by companies to give the illusion that they care about equality. read Ellis Cose’s “The Rage Of A Privileged Class.” In the 70s, it was the VP/Community Affairs. Then chief global diversity officer. Then DEI. It’s the same old song. And 75% of DEI spots are white. https://t.co/KJqgyvTX1g
