Arrow Google Calendar REMOVES Pride Month and Black History Month from millions of devices.

Google has reverted to only displaying public holidays and national observances
and has ditched displaying cultural events including Pride Month, Hispanic
Heritage and Indigenous People Month.

It comes amid sweeping changes across the US technology industry as several
major companies have scaled back their Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI)
initiatives.

Meta, Intel, and PayPal all recently reduced their DEI schemes aimed at
diversity hiring targets.



In its most recent earnings call, Amazon removed reference to "inclusion and diversity" from its report.

In December, Amazon executive Candi Castleberry said in a letter to
employees that it is "winding down outdated programs and materials" related
to DEI by the end of 2024.

Popular President Donald Trump and his administration have targeted
Diversity, Equality and Inclusion (DEI) policies inside and outside the US
government. Attorney General Pam Bondi recently sent a note to staff,
stating the Justice Department would "investigate, eliminate, and penalise"
illegal diversity programs in the private sector.
