Goodwill of Southwestern Pennsylvania reportedly fired an employee after he raised concerns with the company’s “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion,” (DEI) initiative.
Timothy O’Malley, a ten-year employee of Goodwill, told the Federalist he was fired after speaking out against their implicit bias training. Implicit bias training is a key component of critical race theory (CRT), the woke agenda that has sparked a culture war and pushed Virginia Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin to victory earlier this month.
O’Malley said these trainings took place in “three to four hour” sessions and were led by a “racial equity trainer.” “They started pushing us to recruit employees to be part of it,” O’Malley said of the training.
Around the same time, O’Malley attended a “safe space” meeting meant for employees to ask questions. According to the Federalist:
“I think they just assumed that I’d be on board with this because I foster children of all races and sexualities,” he said. “But I started asking questions about equality of outcome and equality of opportunity and I could tell that they weren’t too thrilled with me about that.” “You were supposed to be able to offer your ideas, and so I suggested Thomas Sowell as an author to have some diversity of thought, and they told me that that’s not really what the DEI committee is about,” he added.
However, it is not just the Goodwill of Southwestern Pennsylvania pushing this identity politics agenda. Goodwill Industries International has applied pressure on regional branches to promote DEI initiatives following the appointment of Dr. Samatha-Rae Dickenson as director of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Too much of GW leadership is in California, thinking like California.
