Women of color quit Elizabeth Warren’s campaign in Nevada: report (tokenized, toxic work environment)
Fox News ^ | 2/06/20 | Andrew O'Reilly

Six staffers of color working in the early voting state of Nevada have reportedly left Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s campaign amid complaints of feeling tokenized and having to deal with a toxic work environment.

The staffers, all women, have all left Warren’s 70-person Nevada team since November, with three of them saying they felt marginalized and that their grievances were not addressed despite taking them to their superiors or to human resources staff, Politico reported Thursday.

“During the time I was employed with Nevada for Warren, there was definitely something wrong with the culture,” Megan Lewis, a field organizer who joined the campaign in May and departed in December, told Politico. “I filed a complaint with HR, but the follow-up I received left me feeling as though I needed to make myself smaller or change who I was to fit into the office culture.”

Another field organizer who left the campaign, who did not want her name published for fear of reprisal, told the online outlet she felt like she was brought on the campaign “to literally bring color into the space but not the knowledge and voice that comes with it.”

Do Jewish women typically consider themselves as ‘women of color’? Just asking. Liz may have a bigger problem than she realizes.

Didn’t Kamala Harris have a similar exodus? Women on the campaign said they were treated horribly and they up and left. And that pretty much signaled the end.

Let's be fair. Black females are the most demanding and self-entitled group in this country right now. Nearly every form of entertainment (movies, TV, news and sports broadcasting) has to have a black female. They are also lock step with the Democrat party, more so than any other voting group you can think of.

I am no fan of Warren, but 95% of the black females in this country are a lost cause for compromise and compassion.

Another example of liberal women finding it impossible to work for other liberal women.

“bring color into the space but not the knowledge and voice that comes with it”

Haven’t you been paying attention to the party you work for? What did you think your role was?

Agreed... but Warren and her likes helped foster this behavior.

Part of Indian culture. Indians were slave owners in antebellum south...
