Walmart scales back diversity initiatives after pressure from conservative activist
Briefly

Walmart has decided to end several diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, including winding down its Center for Racial Equity, following pressure from conservative activist Robby Starbuck.
John Furner stated that Walmart is willing to evolve alongside associates and customers: 'We are willing to change alongside our associates and customers who represent all of America.'
Robby Starbuck announced his campaign against Walmart’s 'woke policies' via social media, which propelled significant changes within the company's supplier contract-awarding process.
Elon Musk noted the shift in corporate policies regarding DEI by commenting 'The tide has turned' in reflection of Walmart's rollback of diversity initiatives.
