@JeGram1Cif 1st time I worked with the public we knew certain folks were paid extra to help us if we needed bilingual help. One hospital we called (and hospital paid for) medical translation. No Other Workplace I’ve been at. This is a shame. Bilingual folks should definitely be paid more!

You know, things that would actually save lives?
It’s good to talk about working people, but it’s even better to listen and let them lead.
It’s nice to talk about equality, but it’s even better to actually center marginalized folks.
There is no substitute for lived experience.
