Guest Post: Wal-Mart Watch

By Ann Bartow

I?m a blogger over at Wal-Mart Watch. I?m writing to pass along a video we?ve put together from footage of a 1995 Wal-Mart managers meeting. As you?ll see in the video, someone decided it would be a great idea to incorporate a drag queen competition into the meeting?s official proceedings:

The footage definitely puts the landmark Dukes v. Wal-Mart case in a new, disturbing context. Meetings like this are a big part of the corporate culture of discrimination the Dukes case hinges on. If you?re looking for more info on women?s rights at Wal-Mart, check out our website at: http://walmartwatch.com/womens_rights.

I hope you find it interesting?
