@ToniYates7 “FIRST CUP” Toni — we loved your story with Eric!
@BrittanyBabc7 I'm always happy when I see you and @ToniYates7 and @mcharlesworth7 on a gloomy Saturday morning. It brightens my day
@soledadobrien I’ll never forget my first trip to the Deep South as a young white adult, early 1980s. Outside the office buildings, all you see are Black people. Inside the office buildings, all you see are white people. It was almost a “whoosh” of Black erasure as soon as you walked in a door.
@jambalayababy @soledadobrien That’s so sad that people can’t accept the truth. I’m a HR professional and have worked for a few Fortune 10 companies in my 25+ year career. I’ve seen white women hired in positions to satisfy the D&I numbers not POCs in large part where white men dominated.
@nhannahjones @soledadobrien We need to focus on the real and hard stuff. Cash bail reform, commuting nonviolent drug/over incarcerated prisoners, Investments in black and brown communities without gentrification. A US Marshall plan for our underserved/oppressed communities
@JasonWANF @soledadobrien The fact that the news is being seen through an all white lense doesn't bother you at all? Her point was that she was the only person of color then, and she would be now. People hiring someone the know or feel comfortable with. Litttle variety of perspectives
@chodger Just my experience, ma’am. Not a quip. Not unfounded. Have a great day.
When I joined CNN back in 2003 I was sent to Atlanta for the big welcome meeting. Was extremely surprised when the room of execs and managers looked just like this. In Atlanta. Spoke volumes.
There’s no excuse for that, Will Smith.
