Memorable Quotes:
- “You also have all of the microaggressions, biases, the way people react and the anti-blackness people experience at work. Those things are occurring. So there is a high level of skepticism, with organizations, that nobody is going to do anything. - Sherylle
- “Are you an upstander or a bystander? Are you one of those leaders who “ I hear and see things that happen in the organization and I'm afraid to do anything about it”. That's not what a leader would do.” - Ciara
- “A lot of companies have been performative in nature when it comes to diversity. A long time ago folks were not trying to do anything for pride month and all of a sudden you see certain companies making money off of people's identities. That's performative. ” - Ciara
- “I think some people are intentional with their hate and some people are not. These are the same people who show up at work. The same people who show up at church. These are the same people who may be in front of you at the grocery store.” - Sherylle
