Welcome to another episode of Don’t Do That! with your hosts Karen and Anee! Today, we’re diving into racism at work, specifically for Black professionals. Many Black professionals have had interactions at work that hurt or just feel icky. After the experience, we are left asking ourselves “Was that racist or nah?”

In this episode, we discuss:

• The subtle ways racism and anti-Blackness shows up at work
• The interactions that feels racists at work
• The ways Black employees can respond to racists or uncomfortable interactions at work

Some key takeaways are:

• Dr. Jean’s SNAPS (strategically navigating anti-black in professional spaces) decision-making model provides practical skills for navigating and responding to anti-Blackness.
• Black employees should always prioritize self in responding to racist interactions at work.
