I appreciate this outpouring of support. If good can come from what happened to me, please start an antiracism journey NOW. Start in your business, department, home. Are you using your privilege to amplify the voices of minoritized and racialized folks around you?
As uncomfortable as it may be to hear, your silence allows situations like mine and worse than mine to occur. My situation was allowed to occur b/c 100s of faculty decided “this isn’t my problem” “I don’t have enough information” “I don’t want that to be me” “I never liked her”
But I have nothing to hide or be ashamed of. There is no additional information that’s coming. We know what happened without me being explicit. Leadership knows I didn’t violate any policy. They’ve never provided one. (The school doesn’t even have a code of conduct.)
If I’ve inspired you in some way, please stand by your colleagues, friends, and neighbors. Injustice is everywhere so you’ve got plenty of issues to choose from 😅
Start where you’re comfortable, but consistently challenge yourself.
Pick up “Medical Apartheid”, “White Fragility”, and “How to be Antiracist”.
It’s a difficult but necessary journey.
You can save lives and livelihoods.
Happy reading! Let me know how it’s going! Thank you.
