— Where are white execs on the boards of minority-owned companies? We’ve made strides in getting more people of color on the boards of white-owned companies. But diversity goes both ways. – A.J.

— We Shouldn’t Have To Beg Workers To Work (DIERSEN: I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who have made it the most clear that they have never stooped to take a bad job and that they will never stoop to take a bad job. According to them, all the jobs that I had were bad jobs that they would never stoop to take. I did yard work and delivered newspapers 1962-1964; washed dishes 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966; delivered mail 1966-1969; worked on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard in 1970; sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971; pumped gasoline 1971-1972; collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980; and audited federal agencies 1980-1997.)

RASMUSSEN REPORTS
— Who’s More Racist? Not Whites, Americans Say (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs do everything that they can to make minorities hate Republicans.)
https://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/lifestyle/social_issues/who_s_more_racist_not_whites_americans_say
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Americans believe Blacks are more racist than whites, and think Hispanics and Asians are less racist. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 70% of American Adults think the term “racism” refers to any discrimination by people of one race against another. Just 16% say it refers only to discrimination by white people against minorities. Another 14% are not sure. These findings have not changed much since 2020. Fourteen percent (14%) now believe most white Americans are racist, but 23% think most Black Americans are racist. Only 10% say most Asians and Hispanics are racist. . .Democrats (22%) are at least twice as likely as either Republicans (8%) or those not affiliated with either major party (11%) to say most white Americans are racist. Meanwhile, more Republicans (33%) than Democrats (16%) or unaffiliateds (22%) think most Black Americans are racist.)
