I think you might have misunderstood the meaning of progressive. Anyone who tells you that nothing has changed since slavery is delusional. Of course, I'd bet dollars to donuts that no one has ever told you that.

More than 90 percent of S&P 500 companies now publish ESG reports in some form, as do approximately 70 percent of Russell 1000 companies.
“ESG rating” = environmental, social, and governance issues
So, more & more corporations are becoming political-social activists
Affirmative action is skyrocketing. For example, gender & racial hiring preferences
This is interesting. I hadn't heard about these scores. I'm skeptical about how much these scores impact bottom line, though I wouldn't be surprised to see research supporting that idea. I'm sure there are plenty of companies that do great with low scores, so I'm wondering how much of this push to have high scores is just hype about what's in vogue.

Just a few weeks ago a guy I know who works with POC teens said exactly that. He told me that, "Blacks are still suffering from hundreds of years of oppression and slavery". He went on to tell me he supports blacks receiving millions of dollars in reparations for slavery.

Why do ESG scores matter?
Investors prefer companies with better overall ESG scores because they typically have fewer liabilities, making it easier to acquire capital and hire top talent. These companies also often have successful stakeholder relationships and a brand reputation. All of these factors have an impact on the profitability and bottom line of a business.
ESG scores allow investors to gauge the company's intentions actions, from how they treat their employees to how the board decisions are made or if environmental issues are being prioritized.
A high ESG score may persuade investors to engage, either because the company's values align with their own or because the company is sufficiently protected from future risks associated with issues like pollution or poor governance. An investor who is concerned about ESG may be turned off by a company with a low ESG score.

That isn't what you said earlier, though. He's right that blacks are still suffering from hundreds of years of oppression and slavery. Before, you claimed that progressives tell you that NOTHING has changed. That is a lie, and I'm confident you told that lie to make a point. I'm also confident you lied when you posted that you don't lie to make a point.

I'll believe that this magical ESG score has an effect on investment in some cases, but I doubt that it makes a major impact on all decisions that investors make, and I suspect it's impact is being overstated.

If that were true, then the current crop of GOP candidates wouldn't be trying to ban ESG nationwide after, in some cases, banning investing that considers ESG principles in their home states.

Meh. Politicians don't worry about the truth when they're pandering. It sounds like it's some kind of talking point that's easy for idiots to talk about or understand in a polarizing way. Inferring the truth from what the GOP is talking about is a waste of time.

Way to misrepresent what that guy was saying . You can suffer long term from something that happened two hundred years ago. Society doesn't just change as soon as a law is passed. But you knew what the guy was actually saying.

Many black children are being taught that they are still burdened with the chains of slavery. I've witness this. Many black teens are very angry about slavery, and they believe they are being oppressed and attacked by white skinned people.
It is amazing people refuse to see this as harmful abuse. Black teens are especially hurt by it, as they fully embrace the concept that they are victims of slavery. The rage is growing. I've seen it in my social circle. It's sad.

Racial disparity post slavery is very real. Red lining by banks and just overall stigma of being black has negatively effected the black community in their progress in the US for over a hundred years. As a whole, yes ty e africa American community are victims of slavery to this day. Acting like there is no long term impact from slavery is just stupid.

In my area, the public schools teach "white people are oppressors".
Teaching black children they are victims of slavery is plane insane.
It's fueling rage within the black community - that's not exaggeration.

Notice how African immigrants don't complain about white supremacy in America. It's black Americans that have been brainwashed to feel anger and hate. Thanks to the kind wonderful compassion of the Democrat party.
Democrats are terrified they are losing their grip on the American people. Look at the last 7 years. They realize they can no longer fool most people. And they are freaking out.

What are you taking about? The republicans can barely get themselves elected to anything anymore. You keep losing statehouses, can’t even perform in the midterms. The majority of the country thinks you’re insane. Democrats are riding high. Your party’s leading contender for the White House has been arrested twice in the past two months.
