In his new book "Plantation Theory: The Black Professional's Struggle Between Freedom and Security," John Graham explores and articulates how attitudes about Black labor impact the professional experience for Black and non-Black people alike. "Plantation Theory" will be required reading for corporate DEI initiatives and all companies who want to do better by understanding history.
