The first black woman joined Amazon's top leadership team. Why did this woman join?

First of all, being able to join Amazon's senior leadership team must be strong enough. Rich knowledge and excellent working ability are the most rigid conditions for joining the team. Of course, there is another point, that is, her black identity and female identity.

There was a riot in America this year. The reason is that a black man was strangled because he was treated unfairly by the police. This incident stirred up a thousand waves, and the issue of racial discrimination was pushed to the forefront. The anti-discrimination demonstration initiated by the American people lasted for a long time. People demonstrated in the street, and even some celebrity statues were knocked down. The incident spread in the west, starting from the United States and gradually spreading to European countries, and anti-racial discrimination protests took place in Germany, France and Britain.

Black people were once treated as slaves by white people. Nowadays, even after hundreds of years, racial discrimination still exists more or less in society. Because of their dark skin, American police should think they have broken the law when they see black people. Many companies don't hire black people as employees, and even if they do, they just regard them as cheap labor, don't take them seriously, and don't pay them well.

Such social problems have not been well solved, and this year's throat lock incident has finally become the fuse, which has aroused the anger of black people. Many white people don't like racial discrimination, so they protest together, hoping that everyone can be treated equally.

It is in this context that Amazon's top leadership team recruits black women to show the outside world that there is no racial discrimination in Amazon. But at the same time, women are recruited instead of men, because the problem of gender discrimination in the West is also extremely serious. In ancient times, women always played the role of caring for husbands and educating children at home. They are obedient to their husbands and are not allowed to go out to work Now the society is progressing and opening up, and feminist activities are becoming more and more intense. European and American countries even set up feminist associations. Amazon recruits women to show that they are not sexist, and to let everyone know that women can also be executives.

Of course, this person can be an executive and his own strength is definitely not bad. However, race and gender gave her many points. In the west, this behavior of Amazon is politically correct.
