Speaking as a white person who was clearly and specifically told that I could not get a promotion because I am the wrong color and they were going to preferentially hire and promote “disadvantaged” minorities, yeah, I’m aware it’s racist b.s. Fortunately, as of yesterday I and 500 of my closest friends wee laid off so it’s no longer an issue.
Sorry to hear about your layoff. Good luck.
You should sue and sue BIG.
