it bad that I inwardly recoil when I look at a "meet the team" pic and it's like 30 white people

I'm white as bird crap and those pictures make me wince
CricketMomJenn
I'm white and I totally cringe, too
CricketMomJenn
Because it's usually a sign of Problems

You don't have that happen unless you make choices that actively discriminate or have very strong unconscious bias

last time i got hired to work somewhere that was all white people they referred to a client as a 'negro'

I live in a state that's 94% white (oh god) so it's unavoidable sometimes with smaller employers, but any big business here really has no excuse.

yeah I think I'll pass up any of the ones with an all white cast
Lord Lady
not worth the risk
CricketMomJenn
Yeah. Any place with all white employees has Issues. Serious Issues. Because you have to try in most cases to end up that way or have severe unconscious biases.

Like the one place I was formerly excited to maybe be a part of? I looked up who was there and... everyone was like. White. So I wasn't so sad when they said they weren't hiring me.

I cringe too generally
