Many women who don’t speak up won’t rock the boat because we are breadwinners and in fear of losing our jobs. Our families depend on us for literal housing and food and yet nobody feels sorry for a single black mom (whose partner has left) quite like they do for a widowed white man (whose wife as died).

Thank you Story 135/136, you’re story helps me realize I’m not crazy and that this system is built to drive away talent.

Re: Story 273 and 274. And we’ve now gone full circle. Of the 4 people that preceded the current Head of EDO, 3 were men and still employed at Citi. The one female was fired for allegedly refusing to lie to regulators. Oh f*ck … That looks a lot like retaliation doubled with discrimination in…
