Target says "we're sorry." But is that enough? In this episode, Lambers Fisher breaks down the anatomy of a corporate cultural apology using Target's latest Halloween costume controversy as the case study. He walks through the three essential components every real apology needs: see something, say something, do something, and explains why Target's response, while a decent first step, still isn't complete. This isn't just about one company's PR statement; it's about what it actually takes to rebuild trust after you've caused harm. If you've ever wondered what separates a real apology from a placating one, this episode gives you the framework. Come think this through with Lambers. #TheDiversityDude #LambersFisher #CorporateApology #Target #DEI #CulturalCompetence #Accountability #WorkplaceCulture #DiversityAndInclusion

Tuskegee University just made headlines for banning durags, bonnets, and bedroom slippers in classrooms and the cafeteria. Lambers Fisher breaks down the new dress code and the debate it sparked: is this preparing students for the professional world, or policing culture in the name of respectability? He gets into where cultural expression and career readiness collide, and whether an HBCU should be the one drawing that line. This isn't just about clothes; it's about who gets to define what "professional" looks like, and at what cost.

Just because something is legal doesn't make it right, and it raises a bigger question: is hateful speech actually protected by the government? Lambers shares a few things worth keeping in mind for the next time you're in a hard conversation about where free speech ends and hate begins. 

Some art doesn't just get seen, it becomes history.
