There’s a Manager on my team that is racist ( I was moved off of her team because of this) Every time there is someone Black on her team they are outright bullied and put in psychological unsafe environments. VP’s have been made aware but nothing has happened. Has anyone experienced this and had a good outcome by going to HR as a group?

Not sure this would be helpful but we have receipts.

I'm feeling a lot of anger towards my manager (now he's acting normal but there were moments where he was condescending/dismissive/mocked my and others work/arrogant/said stuff was "wrong" constantly/belittling the difficulty of tasks etc. in the past project).
Maybe it is "standard chewing out" but it bothered me a lot. So much that I find myself still getting all fired up inside thinking about it...
Idk how to let go of this :/ Thoughts?
