I'm watching the Henry and Meghan documentary on Netflix. I never realized Meghan Markle went through so much grief simply on account of her skin color.

Idk, I have a hard time empathizing on this one. She is literally one of the most privileged people in the world, but it feels like she’s always gotta be the victim. It’s off-putting and makes it hard for me to take her complaints seriously.

She went to a private school. That’s middle class?

So many lies been portrayed by Meghan! She knew the family she was getting into, she wasn’t getting married to Harry but to an ancient institution…. She pulled him away from his family on the pretext of privacy and all the world sees is a docuseries and a book! Enough of her playing victim!

Indeed.

She wasn't "white enough" for some people.

Additional Posts in Diversity & Inclusion

My company has ERGs and one of them is pretty large and includes a lot of demographics. Within it, people are starting to kind of form their own subgroups (like based on office location or country-specific ethnicity). Does anyone have any thoughts around what would be appropriate for DEI practitioners to be aware of when serving these populations?

In honor of National Voter Registration Day, The New Yorker released the transcript of a previously unpublished interview with James Baldwin, who gave a first-hand account of "Freedom Day 1963," a Black voter-registration drive in Selma, Alabama. Baldwin's descriptions from that day are so vivid and detailed that you can feel the fear and anger of the event. If you have a couple of minutes, I highly recommend you read it.

Feeling very frustrated right now…company talks a big game about DEI internally, while requiring new hires to move to Texas/Arizona, while the company’s PAC donates to politicians pushing extremist, regressive, anti-woman and anti-LGBT laws

They want to encourage us to “bring our whole self to work” while putting us in situations where we can’t be our whole self.

Anyone else in a similar place, feeling discouraged? Any tips?
