Greetings and Thank-you,

I am a 63 y/o Black woman, RN, up at 4am to meditate and armor myself against the insidiousness of my coworkers racism. Nothing says white supremacy, patriarchy and capitalism quite like the the health industry. My days to retirement are fast approaching and I can’t wait to be free from the fecklessness of my “peers”.

Thank-you Ms. Oluo for writing these words. I feel seen and validated, I only wished my younger self had understood the trade offs I would need to make.

Thank you for this. The racial violence in these spaces are so real in corporations and also in the government sectors where I work. I feel less alone in my experience thank you 🙏🏽
