“As members of the Dayton family, we were shocked and dismayed due to the decline in the goal of her work, changing racist stocks, and changing the diversity of suppliers.”
Daytons, who have no zero effect on how to operate the company, wrote that their father and uncles “have turned a family retail store into national retail stores today” with work “depends on a clear set of principles.”
They wrote: “They were excellence,” The customer is always the right of “talisman and commitment to the luxury of their community.”

Last month, Target said it “concludes its three -year goals for its diversity and the rights of stocks and integration” and its reports will stop at the Equality Index in the Human Rights Campaign, according to an internal memorandum obtained by the publication.
The seminar seller, who is based in Minneapolis, said that he is finishing a program for products from the companies owned by minorities.
The company, which has gained a reputation in recent years for “Wokeness” for its companies, has made the PRIDE LGBTQ groups after a violent reaction from angry customers due to gay -length children's clothes.
TARGET was founded in May 1962 as a chain of stores that have been based in Mininapolis began at Dayton Company, a minibolis stores chain decades ago by George Dripper Dayton.
After Dietton's death in 1938, his son, George Nelson Dietton, assumed a leadership role in the company until his death in 1950.
Then the sons of George Nelson Diton – Bruce, Donald, Wallace, Kenneth and Douglas – dominated the company. Under their supervision, they created the target, the retail department is a opponent at Dayton Company.
Seven years later, Diton merged with Hudson Corporation-Detroit-based department store-to form a retail set dominating the Middle West.
While Dayton has played a decisive role in forming early Target success, the family's effect gradually shrinks with the company's growth and moved to a company publicly circulated.
By the time when the Dayton Hudson Foundation was renamed as Target in 2000, the family had already moved away from the executive leadership.
Although some Dietton family members may still carry shares in the target, they have no significant impact on corporate decisions.
Today, institutional investors such as Vanguard, Blackrock and State Street are the largest stakeholders in the company.
The Dietton family remains a well -known name in Minnesota, due primarily to its charitable efforts and the legacy of business, but it is no longer linked to the target leadership or decision -making operations.
