À propos de cet audio
Hush Money tells a story that is all too familiar to Black people across the globe with the case study of Ebony, a young Black woman who was living in poverty, struggling financially, and finding it hard to make ends meet. It describes how she obtained a job with an organization, after years of working dead end jobs, that put her one step closer to living the American dream. But it also describes how that dream turned into a nightmare when she became a victim of systemic racism in her workplace, was stripped of all dignity, confidence and strength, and was left with three choices: suffering in silence to keep her job, resigning to keep her sanity, or waiting to be unjustly fired.
Hush Money also tells a story of triumph that breaks down the strategy Ebony used after years of suffering that not only proved systemic racism in her workplace, but also allowed her to keep her job and receive a six-figure settlement from her employer, among other things, to buy her silence.

The reader leave with a strong sense of knowledge and confidence, and the seeds of a game plan. It’s useful for all racialized minorities, 2SLGBTQIA+ community, women, people experiencing disabilities, neurodivergent
individuals, etc.
It’s also a great tool for HR. With more books like this we can help make sure DEI is implemented in the workplace and make sure the workforce is used efficiently by protecting and promoting equity in the workplace. Protecting the humans and not the corporations. In fact, protecting the corporations would be also to make sure to retain and used all human ressources available. It cost more to an organization to pay for mental health, or to offer training to multiple individuals who end-up bringing their competencies elsewhere leave due to systemic racism and harassment.
A game changer towards an DEI workplace

That her race had been such a detriment to her emotional, physical and financial health because of individual racists, and systemic racism is horrible.
The courage shown by Ebony in this story is inspirational, to say the least.
I love and hate the story. For completely different reasons. I love the perseverance for “good” shown by Ebony, and I hate the perseverance for “evil” shown by the many antagonists.
