Deloitte UK staff have expressed concern after the company invited an academic who described Winston Churchill as a white supremacist to give a talk about identity to employees., is set to give a talk to Deloitte UK staff on October 31 about “identity and authenticity and black excellence” as a part of a series of lectures the consultancy firm has been hosting for black history month.
Alka Sehgal Cuthbert, director of the campaign group Don’t Divide Us, said that “ Andrews’ obsession with ‘whiteness’ is a classic example of toxic identity politics”. “This is frankly obscene to anyone who remembers when black people were treated unequally in Britain in the past,” Dr Sehgal Cuthbert said.
