Progressive Insurance is being sued for discrimination for offering grants to black-owned businesses, while excluding white, Asian, and Latinos from applying.
Progressive worked in partnership with Hello Alice to award grants to black-owned businesses.
The 10 winners were announced in a press release on Tuesday.
“Progressive Insurance®, the leading commercial auto insurer in the United States, has announced the 10 recipients of its 2023 Driving Small Business Forward grant with Hello Alice in support of Black entrepreneurs. Each small business owner has been awarded a $25,000 grant for use toward the purchase of a commercial vehicle for their business.” the press release said. more

Good old Regressive.
No more affirmative action.
Love ’em or hate ’em, they are a private company and can do what they want with “their” money.
Actual message to blacks: all y’all can’t do stuff by your ingnorant selves, so we, the great white fathers/mothers will save you.”
But then, Progressive always was leftist.
Gee, another reason to hate Flo and those damned Progressive insurance ads on TV that are even more annoying than all the constant ads for drugs. Even GEICO’s ads aren’t that annoying.
Flo is even more annoying than Fran Drescher with her annoying, nasally NY accent. And don’t even get me started on the white guy who is totally gay. Ugh, I can’t stand him either.
What do you call a commercial vehicle used by a black entrepreneur?
@ Sippin: “Love ’em or hate ’em, they are a private company and can do what they want with “their” money.”
Indeed no, they are a Publicly Traded/Publicly Owned corporation and as such are charged with a fiduciary obligation to the owners (shareholders) of the corporation.
Liberty mutual has the least annoying commercials with Limu Emu and Doug .
So let’s see the Nexflix version of Flo.

SNS – We don’t have Netflix at our house & just between us those actors’ Complexion is their protection.
Jennifer, don’t get me started about Jake From State Farm. I reckon that slot is permanently black now. And enjoy white Doug while you still can. He’s no doubt also due for a darkening.
All those commercials in prime aren’t cheap, and the costs are rolled into the premiums.
The ones I don’t get are the ‘young homeowner turning into their parents’. What the heck does that have to do with insurance?
@Cracker Ass
Stolen!
Agreed Thirdtwin, why the hell couldn’t he be “Jamal” or some ghetto named brotha like Quintav’rius Lashawnity?
don’t do business with regressive ins. & fk all of the diversity ad aholes
The “Mayhem” commercials are pretty good. At least the ones I’ve seen seem to be better than most.
Quintav’rius ain’t got nothing on these guys;
