I speak of lynching a lot when it comes to professional spaces. It triggers some people, but there are numerous parallels to the atrocities that occurred during the US Civil Rights Movement and what continues to occur in supposed professional spaces. I use this word because no one goes to work to get slaughtered. Employees expect to be safe or at least move through an equitable process that allows them to share their truths and seek justice when rules aren't followed. Some points I've observed: 1. People who lynch people in professional spaces think they will not be punished for their actions, otherwise the wouldn’t attempt to be so evil. 2. Systems often uphold the heinous acts of harm against employees despite evidence that confirms a workplace lynching has occurred. 3. People who witness lynchings at work often remain silent for fear of retaliation or harm to them in the same way someone was lynched. I define professional lynchings and other terms in this popular 2023 #StopPlayingDiversity podcast episode. Stay safe in these workplace streets, friends. https://lnkd.in/gH8Cc2Eu

We are proud to announce our collaboration with the Lawnside Historical Society, Inc. who has received a $34K grant to digitize Lawnside's extensive archive from the Institute for Museum and Library Services (https://lnkd.in/gy6PNThg). We will be providing program management and historical consulting. Our work seeks to elevate the deep 19th century economic, social and activist connections between the 1838 Black Metropolis and the surrounding regions. Snow Hill, now called Lawnside, is one of those 'suburbs' of the Metropolis that was instrumental in providing sanctuary for people self-liberating from enslavement. There is a treasure trove of early 19th Century documents and histories that will be made available to the public soon through this grant. In this era when Black histories are being censured, we are proud to be a part of a project to ensure their longevity and retrievability for our next generations. https://lnkd.in/eC9G-yx7
