Goldman Sachs Group Inc's investment bank formed a new group to increase its recruitment and hiring of Black employees and improve career development and retention among existing Black employees, according to a memo sent on Tuesday that was seen by Reuters.

A Goldman spokeswoman, Nicole Sharp, verified the contents of the memo and said the new group will work on honing and improving diversity targets set in 2019 specifically for the investment bank. The investment banking division co-heads Gregg Lemkau and Dan Dees will meet with the group bi-weekly and aim to have “specific recommendations for tangible actions ready by this fall,” according to the memo, signed by Lemkau and Dees.

The group was launched in response to the spotlight put on systemic racism in the U.S. after the killing of George Floyd in May.

If they are qualified, why not. Huh. I worked there some years ago and there were many employees of all races there.

and they think a hiring plan specifically benefits black people is not racism?

Every business is thinking the same, but only out of fear of being called a 'racist' employer if the skin color counter doesn't add up Millennials

How long will that last? Will black employees be permitted to say N---R in the office?
