Flipboard Culture Desk<p>The CEO of U.S. retailer Target plans to meet with civil rights leader the Rev. Al Sharpton this week. Target eliminated some of its diversity, equity and inclusion policies and programs after President Donald Trump's inauguration, and has experienced declining footfall subsequently. Rev. Sharpton's National Action Network has encouraged consumers to avoid retailers that scaled back DEI initiatives. While he hasn't called out Target specifically, he has said he will consider it if the company doesn't reaffirm its commitment to Black businesses, employees and consumers. Here's more from CNBC. See the Retail Wire story at the second link for info on Target's current downturn.</p><p><a href="https://flip.it/51Z1ym" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">flip.it/51Z1ym</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://flip.it/02r2y8" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">flip.it/02r2y8</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/BlackMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BlackMastodon</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/blackmastodon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>blackmastodon</span></a></span> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Retail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Retail</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Lifestyle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Lifestyle</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Target" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Target</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/DEI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DEI</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/USPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USPolitics</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/AlSharpton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AlSharpton</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/RevAlSharpton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RevAlSharpton</span></a></p>
