Big box electronics retailer Best Buy is under fire after it was revealed a company leadership program specifically bars white people from participating.
Details of the discriminatory program caused outrage on social media after they were leaked by James O’Keefe’s new watchdog group OMG.
A virtual form for the program features the Best Buy logo and says candidates for the program seeking to enhance leadership skills “must meet the [racial] requirements” before saying it’s only open to people who “identify as Black, Latino, Hispanic, Asian or Pacific Islander.”
Another Twitter user highlighted the fact the group behind the leadership program, McKinsey & Co., has previously partnered with the World Economic Forum as part of The Global Lighthouse Network “pushing SEL [social and emotional learning], DEI [diversity, equity, and inclusion], CRT [critical race theory] and ESG [environmental, social and governance] in schools around the world.”

Following news of the leadership program’s evidently racist details, Best Buy CEO Corie Barry made her X account private.
The retailer was also hit with fierce criticism and calls for boycotts.
Hey @BestBuy I’m apparently not in your demographic. I’m canceling my credit card and won’t be shopping with you again.

Is @BestBuy a racist company?
By the looks of their management training program, the answer is an overwhelming YES.
Time to give them the Bud Light treatment. #BoycottBestBuy

Meanwhile, O’Keefe promises more Best Buy developments are soon forthcoming.
