All racism must be rooted out and eliminated. No mater how small.

Why do you think that? Can you give specific examples?

But this isn’t the way to do it. Whatever happened to just conversations regarding race? Like hey so and so, not sure of your intent but X can come across as racist bc of ABC. I remember having that conversation with peers in college (on both the learning and teaching end) and that’s how we grew and challenged our preconceived notions. But now people walk on eggshells and no one learns crap. Resentment builds. Divisions grow.

I mean even the ACLU says they don’t know what her intent was nor does it matter.

What she was doing was complaining. Maybe she should have grumbled to herself more rather than to her supervisors and colleagues, but was the language she was using coded or just strong?

There was nothing racist or coded about what she said.

She said that she was afraid to talk to a person in a position of power above her because of that person's declared friendship with someone she was having a dispute with. That declaration of fear, which is obviously based on the inherent power dynamic, was then declared trigerring by the person in power who then exercised his power to administratively punish her for expressing fear of retaliation under the guise of racism. He actually proved that her fears were well founded.

The weaponization of the beatings will continue until morale improves quip was also kafkaesque.

She was right to be afraid. Maybe someday that man will have enough self-reflection and honesty to realize that.

Her offenses:

1. During an emergency group meeting to address staff following the departure of a Senior Officer due to repeated claims of "abrasive" behavior. She asked “Why shouldn’t we simply expect that ‘the beatings will continue until morale improves?'"

The DEI director then called her up and told her that her language was violent, dangerous and damaging.

2. The replacement hire and personal friend of the Senior Officer that departed due to abrasive behavior called her into his office to ask why she didnt come to him earlier after she called her direct supervisor a liar. She responded that she was afraid. The Senior Officer then wrote her up and complained up the chain and behind her back for using "triggering" language.

3. The DEI officer from 1. evidently kept calling her up to "check in". Oh responded that she felt that these check ins were chastisting and a form of reprimand. Please note that she was actually reprimanded during these phone calls. The DEI officer then wrote her up for "the stream of anti-Black rhetoric you’ve been using throughout the organization."

4. Subsequently she wrote on Twitter that she was "physically repulsed" at having to work for "incompetent/abusive bosses."

The ACLU has zero credibility in 2024.

The thing is, she's a lawyer and the ACLU is a law firm. The standard of behavior at a law firm is very different than the standard of behavior at a corporate office. Lawyers use rougher language.

Her bosses crazy. And they're in trouble.

Another weird thing about this... the ACLU basically is a law firm that brings cases. To me, it seems clear that this case is about as viable as the Trump election fraud cases. And when lawyers bring cases that stupid, they should, like Guliani, get disbarred for wasting the courts time.

The case was brought by the NLRB against the ACLU

right. maybe what is weird is that they didn't know they were sitting ducks for somebody to bring a wrongful dismissal against them. Lawyers should know better.

If I were a jury, I'd give her pain and suffering. There are only 3 modern sins: murder (with a few exemptions), theft (with a few exemptions), and racism. To accuse her of racism with no justification? that must have caused her great pain.
