Episode 7: non-white and female
August 15, 2012
In this episode we look at the merits of diversity training for white men (for the participants and the company). We meet a manager who reluctantly signed up for three days of a 'white men's caucus' but came away with a new mindset. (He says even his marriage has benefitted. I'll have to trust him on this.) And we talk to journalist Stacy-Marie Ishmael about what it felt like to be one of the very few non-white people in the newsroom at the global publication she joined straight from college. Feedback welcome.

YES! I love this: "When you are in a position of power and privilege, everything can be a joke to you because everything that you see isn't being scrutinized ten ways till Sunday."
