Racism is back at full speed at Delta Airlines. https://t.co/DM414uo6C3
Delta Airlines is racist. https://t.co/xb05avqzoY
Delta airlines tells its employees to be racist. If anyone tells you to be racist, even an employer such as @Delta, don’t comply. https://t.co/LxbeaQkuOh
Racist airlines treating white people as inferior. @Delta $dal https://t.co/RP61SL8HYF
Delta Airlines requires the capitalization of "black" and "brown" but "white" to be lowercase in all communications. Is this that DEI thing everyone's talking about? https://t.co/BEMF1GD7tS
As usual @Scotttaylorva has (purposely?) failed to investigate why Delta Airlines does this. See something that looks racist? Post it! https://t.co/3JO2sVhZ4E
Why is @Delta instructing employees to capitalize Black and Brown and keep White lowercase? https://t.co/SVJRgFd9eA
WTF is wrong at Delta Airlines? Their DEI department is ordering everyone to capitalize "Black" and "Brown" ... meanwhile when referring to "white" people it should always be lowercase. This is one of the most racist companies in America today. https://t.co/eMfR3CsbRy
Delta’s “inclusive language guide” tells its employees to capitalize “black” and “brown” but lowercase “white”. Not very inclusive of them. https://t.co/p9bEF0KhLt
From a source at Delta Airlines. Delta is asking employees to capitalize Black & Brown but write White in lowercase. @Delta must stop this blatant racism. https://t.co/1Ob0N5dYMq
