Monday's Opening Thought: December 14, 2020

Monday’s opening thought:

“When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time. People know themselves much better than you do. That's why it's important to stop expecting them to be something other than who they are.”

- Maya Angelou

That’s it. That’s the opening thought.

Stop expecting your racist uncle, transphobic sister, and ableist co-worker to show you something other than who they are. What they’re showing you is ultimately who they are, and you have to stop expecting that these people will change unless you see a sustained consistent effort from them to change that convinces you otherwise. And even then you should temper your expectations. Be willing to give some people a chance but don’t get hoodwinked.

Monday's Opening Thought: December 7, 2020

This week’s opening thought: Familiarize yourself with the characteristics of white supremacist workplace culture. Then make a plan to actively be a voice in opposition to it, not only in your current workplace but in every workplace you work in for the rest of your work career. Why? It’s literally a system of oppression that doesn’t actually benefit anyone in the workplace outside of a subsection of white cis men and women. Hell, it doesn’t even benefit all white people in the workplace. If we want equity in our workplaces, real sustainable equity, then it is long past time we chucked this large piece of white supremacy in the bin and held ourselves accountable for putting the can on the curb for pick-up.
