The difference between the way Jacob Blake and Kyle Rittenhouse have been treated speaks volumes about how deeply embedded racism and white supremacy are in every aspect of our society.
If you want to make one positive change in your organization this year, allow employees to apply for internal transfers & promotions without their manager’s knowledge or approval. After all, why would you make it harder for folks to move internally than to leave the company?
Isn't it odd that we expect a kid to choose a career at age 17 with almost no understanding of what careers might be available or what those careers are like...and choose a college major & often, take on $100K or more of debt based on their age 17 career choice? When jobs...
@tooks1pili@MamaDoctorJones Not HIPPA but I used to have the problem when I worked at a bank where a family banked whose men were like that. I had to double and triple check i had the right person
@MamaDoctorJones I work for a hospital and I am always super careful when double checking a patients ID. If I'm not 100% certain I ask more questions they can verify without me giving out any info until I am sure.
A diagnosis is also what gets people accommodations at work and disability rights! Most things require documentation of a diagnosis for any assistance.
I’m glad to see #IowaDerecho is finally trending. We were shocked at how few people had heard about it. Last week 100+mph winds tore through our state destroying countless properties and millions of acres of crops. This video was from @BlackEarthGalry in Cedar Rapids.
Hey Josh, Iowans are hurting. You can see that in their tweets. We see it in their faces streaked with tears and sweat. They hate asking for help but they - we- are desperate. You have a large reach. Please put your apology into action and write about our disaster. #IowaDerecho
Where is the federal relief for Iowa? 10m acres of crops have been destroyed. Houses. Communities. Wake up federal gov! What because it’s not called a tornado or hurricane you don’t need to act fast? Come On!!
People — especially chronically ill and disabled folks — will suffer and die without medication. Priceless items will be lost. Elections will be stolen.
THIS is the fight between now and November. We need to bring that same energy we’ve been bringing to the streets. #SaveTheUSPS
Between Dolly Parton's quiet COVID research fund, BLM support, and her sending generations of children books through the USPS, at 74, she continues to be one of the most relevant and ever timely people of every era.
I’m getting concerned that the damage from a storm system called “derecho” isn’t getting much national news coverage. THIS MATTERS. Why? Money and help follow news coverage. This isn’t a few trees down and the inconvenience of power out. It’s like a tornado hit whole counties.
