It’s the last day of Women’s History Month and if you identify as a woman in the workplace, this survey is for you. What does inclusion look like for you? What about equity? Is that happening at work? What IS happening at work? Let’s stop allowing others to tell our work stories.

More than 300k Black women being pushed out of the labor market while white men gained 365k more jobs is what we mean when we refer to racism as systemic.

Haven’t read the paper yet but in the interest of rigor, I share an excerpt from a write up about the study. It finds that AI is better than humans at interviewing job candidates. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

I have been saying this for two years. Companies are not hiring at the same rate and they are laying people off. This market is stalled. And I don’t think this current administration cares to do anything to make change like past ones would. Everyone is affected.

Just look at how we view hoodies. On Mark Zuckerberg, the hoodie is a symbol of whiz kid meritocracy breaking norms and developing the New Economy. On people like Trayvon Martin, the hoodie is sometimes seen as proof of criminality. Again, it's about the bodies beneath the clothes.

When I do candidate interviews and ask them “What managerial style works best for you?” almost all of them start with what doesn’t work. “I cannot work with micromanagers.” Yet here we are.

I don’t know if she is or isn’t but I know she deserves take the time she needs after more than half of the voters chose this situation. I know I’m listening to the Dems on payroll right now and not expecting anyone else to show up.

T Tara Turk-Haynes @ttara.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

But if you ask someone to do something, you should be clear about what you want them to do. Or else it sounds like you don’t know either. She hasn’t ran if she’s taking time after a loss to decide what works best for her.

T Tara Turk-Haynes @ttara.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

She’s in California. She has not vanished. Also, it’s giving asking someone to do free labor after being exhaustive in telling people why they should vote for you and they didn’t. She deserves rest. If she wants to come out and influence she has time. We are over a month from her loss.

000

T Tara Turk-Haynes @ttara.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

In addition you haven’t said what you actually expect her to do specifically? You said be a thorn which isn’t going to save us. Should she do a lot of talking on TV? Nobody is watching that. Is she the only one? Why not focus on the elected Dems? We will likely continue to disagree.

000

T Tara Turk-Haynes @ttara.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

Walking away? She’s in her home state of California supporting the fire devastation without a paying job. Asking someone who lost an election to volunteer their time to people who didn’t do their part to the fullest is unreasonable. She said she would do that if elected.

T Tara Turk-Haynes @ttara.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

In addition - all of this want doesn’t articulate what you think she can do as a private citizen. Points to a lack of strategy. I don’t want to see her make the rounds in trad media just criticizing and she has no ability to action. Focus on current elected Dems.

T Tara Turk-Haynes @ttara.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

I disagree. She was pulled into an election with short time and faced ridiculous amounts of racism and sexism. She deserves to rest. She is not the leader of that party as a private citizen. It’s as if people keeping expecting Black women to save the day. Undue burden.

T Tara Turk-Haynes @ttara.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

What does that change? A thorn in the side is not a strategy. He doesn’t care about thorns. People need to call on Dem elected leaders and organize locally. She lost the election. Focus on the people in office.

There are a lot white women demanding that Kamala come out and lead. But she’s a private citizen. What exactly do you expect her to do to make change to this chaos?
