Civil Rights Complaint Filed Against Anheuser-Busch for Racist and Sexist Hiring

The makers of Bud Light, who are facing a nationwide public backlash over promoting trans-activism in the name of diversity, have found themselves amid a civil rights complaint for racist and sexist hiring practices.

โ€œThe evidence is that Anheuser-Busch is knowingly, intentionally, and unlawfully discriminating based on race, color, national origin, and sex with respect to employment and job training opportunities,โ€ said the April 17 complaint (pdf) filed by public charity America First Legal (AFL) with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) against beverage manufacturer Anheuser-Busch.

AFL pointed to the Missouri-based companyโ€™s 2023 Leadership Accelerator Program, which provides leadership-development programs for individuals who identify as historically underrepresented groups as they join the company in a full-time capacity.

โ€œWe encourage candidates who identify as Black, Latinx, and Native American to apply, as well as those who identify with a historically underrepresented group,โ€ according to the programโ€™s job profile. The company insists that it is an โ€œequal opportunity employer.โ€

AFL slammed such tactics, pointing out that the Leadership Accelerator Program notably excludes white and Asian-American citizens.

In a recent post, the nonprofit accuses the company of discriminating based on race, color, national origin, and sex in their employment practices under the cloak of equity.

โ€œIt is a fast-track program to executive leadership positions at Anheuser-Busch, and it is limited to candidates based on race. The proforma Equal Opportunity Employer language at the end of the posting does mask the companyโ€™s discriminatory intent and purpose,โ€ the letter states.

In addition, Anheuser-Buschโ€™s diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) strategy also boosted the presence of women in the companyโ€™s senior leadership team, the organization said.

Exclusionary Practices?

AFL points out that federal law forbids an employer from discriminating against an existing or potential employee due to the personโ€™s race, color, national origin, sex, or religion. In addition, employers are also forbidden from limiting, segregating, or classifying employees or applicants in such a discriminatory manner that would affect the individualโ€™s employment opportunities.

โ€œA commissionerโ€™s charge is particularly appropriate here because there is ample reason to believe that Anheuser-Busch has knowingly and intentionally violated federal law and will continue to do so,โ€ the letter said.
