Black Girl At Work

Just an account of unnecessary and ignorant crap I've had to deal with at work. Feel free to share your experiences... currently updating with a backlog

It's crazy how all these companies were posting black squares but have said NOTHING to their internal staff. Y'all ain't shit!

Wow this is just some of the thousands of petitions rejected by the British government.

This speaks volumes.

This is heartbreaking...

For everyone who says, "If Rayshard Brooks didn't resist arrest, he'd still be alive":

I really want to quit but THIS is the reality. I cant stop a fight that was started generations before me. The Black women before me fought so I could get here and I wont let your racism and microaggressions stop me

My daughter will be a trust fund kid & so will her children to come. I am not playing around. My family name will live on with black wealth if its the only thing we achieve 😤

For anyone worried about talking to their white children right now—worried that their kid is too young for these conversations—I was 5 or 6 when my Dad told me “no matter what you do, some people will always hate you.” Black children don’t get to not understand racism.

We are nothing but a statistic to hold up and shout about to say they have a 'diverse' company. FUCK ALL OF THAT! You don't care about us or our well being! How many companies internally took part in Black History Month?! Without bastardising it into a made up name month!

Its really showing they do not care about their black employees. Its saddens me that these companies think the matter of mine and my peoples lives are too political or a 'trend'.

being black is having to think twice about what hairstyle you will wear to a job interview

[J 🇬🇩🇻🇨 @jjxdie]

Why do people love to romanticise how strong black women are? Are we strong when we’re crying uncontrollably? When we’re suffering depressive states? When we doubt ourselves or second guess reality from being gaslighted? Let black women be vulnerable, delicate & in need of help.
