Diversity Challenge in Walmart

Walmart and Diversity Challenges: Wal-Mart Sued for Alleged Anti-Gay Discrimination – Smithson was denied spousal health insurance coverage from 2008. In January 2014, the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission determined Wal-Mart's denial of insurance "constituted discrimination on the basis of her sex," because Smithson would have been covered if Cote was male . Brian Nick (Walmart’s director of national media relations) says that before 2014, the company allowed insurance to same-sex couples in places where state law required it.

This means that, we must look at both the power the individual has to exercise agency and the structure, or society into which they are born; the society, which already exist. Sociologist Emile Durkheim ...
