I personally applied for 3 positions within Wells Fargo that I was very qualified for, and got 3 denials. My name is Hannah, so I decided the 4th time to not check that I was "black".
I got an interview within 48 hours.
Fuck this company.
we literally saw what happened in real time. every single moderate candidate dropped out and coalesced around Joe Biden before and around Super Tuesday. this isn’t some mystery.
the supreme court ruling that gays cant be fired for being gay on the same day they approved an oil pipeline that could destroy the appalachian trail is a good example of how "social progress" is really just a mask for the continuance and acceleration of death cult capitalism.
This Joe Biden interview is precisely why we gotta stop giving White people “invitations to the cookout” or fictive kinship status like “uncle.” We can no longer applaud and reward liberal white people for showing basic decency or, worse, merely hiding their racism.
I remember when I started to hate poverty. I was sitting at the bus stop with mom.
We were having hard times. No lights. No water. No car. I saw her working so hard. As a child, I knew it wasn’t right.
She laid on me and cried as we sat at the bus stop. It lit a fire in me.
