In Washington, Elon Musk has been at the forefront of Trump administration efforts to gut programs designed to promote diversity.<\/p>\n

At the same time, Tesla, the electric car company that Mr. Musk leads, has in recent days, with little notice, tried to appease critics who have accused the company of racial discrimination.<\/p>\n

In a little-noticed section of the company\u2019s annual report published on Jan. 29, its board promised to monitor \u201chow Tesla recruits, develops and retains excellent talent.\u201d<\/p>\n

It has been accused in lawsuits<\/a> of being too passive in its oversight of Mr. Musk, who runs several other companies and has been deputized by President Trump to cut government spending.<\/p>\n
