2 years ago, I successfully defended my dissertation and developed a decision-making model for how Black people respond to racism in the workplace. This June, my book based on the model launches. newharbinger.com/97816484829…
Here are 4 reasons I made this model (1/2)

I'm always amazed at the sheer impact and influence of Black women in and outside of academia who rarely get the credit they deserve. Cite, credit, and celebrate Black women's contributions. Thank you @IBJIYONGI
