If it were in my power, Rooo... if it were in my power.

Hello, fellow white person.

A c-suite executive at my job decided to hold a virtual conference during the height of the protests, and she basically admitted that she’s expecting the new diversity executive and other BIPOC employees to hold her hand through the process of learning about systemic racism. I almost died. We’re supposed to be one of…
