Dear John,
Jeff Bezos says "Black Lives Matter" but refuses to give his predominantly Black warehouse workers paid sick leave.
Jamie Dimon says JPMorgan must "be inclusive in our work" but only 4 percent of his bank's top executives are Black.
BlackRock CEO Larry Fink says that racism "must be addressed on both a personal and systemic level" but his firm is one of the largest investors in the private prison operators GEO Group and CoreCivic.
Walmart CEO Doug McMillon recently announced Walmart would create a center on racial equality, but the company has overworked and mistreated its Black employees for decades.
When you peel back their PR stunts and press releases, the truth comes into focus: far from being the solution to systemic racism in America, these billionaires and their corporations are actively perpetuating it.
Our latest video exposes the hypocrisy of corporate virtue signaling. [[link removed]]

Don’t be fooled by glitzy press releases and flashy PR stunts. Wall Street and corporations profit from and reinforce systemic racism in America.
We have the power — as their consumers, clients, and employees — to demand these companies stop their racist practices.
It’s time they back up their lofty rhetoric with fundamental change.
Raise your voices, and stay vigilant.
Thanks for watching,
Robert Reich
