This week's caller is looking for scripts that can help her call out some discriminatory dynamics at work. 

She asks:  "I am facing new challenges in my work environment. More specifically, I am noticing weird racial dynamics ( for example, staff of colour all scheduled for night shift, and day shift exclusively (no exceptions) staffed by white staff. I have also heard rumours of ‘racially hostile behaviour’ from colleagues and supervisors. For context, I am black/African. I also just notice gossipy, 2-faced behaviour. And all of this makes me feel unsafe. I want to do something about it but I feel so much fear. Any ideas?"  

 Listen along as we discuss:

• 6:57  The upside of anger and how to work with it skillfully 
• 7:47  The importance of knowing what you WANT to say 
• 11:10  "Why is this happening?"
• 13:04  "I'm scared I'll get fired"
• 21:09  Addressing issues from the power-under position
