More Than a Hashtag and 'Competitive' is Not a Salary Bracket
In this episode, we discuss why online activism is not where the action stops. What role do we have as PR and Communications professionals to change the narrative and breakdown racist rhetoric in society? Following the massacre in Atlanta on March 16, the conversation about racism, particularly to east and south Asian communities, has been ignited, with the hashtag #StopAsianHate but it has to be more than an online gesture. For our 5 minutes, we talk about the problems associated with using ‘competitive, as a salary disclosure.
