I accidentally said “white people love to X” and these 3 white people started yelling at me that “not all white peoples

and idk how to put into words why I always make the distinction between what white people do vs. me as a brown person and why I always have to call it out. Idk random vent but wondering if anyones felt this way/ has words to put into as to why

Hello! I’ve been researching opportunities at Salesforce and recently came across an opening within the Customer Success Group as an engagement delivery manager. I was wondering if anyone in this bowl had any experience in the area? It seems like a great fit for my skills and background (MBA+8yrs of PM/sales) but I’d love to chat with anyone with experience in the area. TIA
