    Thank you Keith, you are rare in making this admission. There are gatekeepers working within HR to prevent access and progression for BAME HR professionals. They are aided in this by HR recruitment consultancies who are also homogeneously white so this…

    You are correct Prince there are mental health implications for BAME people suffering in silence whilst putting on a smile. The mental health effects of racism are totally under-estimated because BAME face a cultures of disbelief from people who do have…

    Hi Caroline,
    It's good you notice the level of comments to engage with the topic relative to the number of views (which now over 6,000+ - as at 21/6/20) I would be interested to see you expand and perhaps it may mean more of the 6,000 who are likely…

    Finally, a very rare and honest response - Thank you Keith!. I am pleased Prof Robin DiAngelo's book has had an effect on you and you can start your journey to be an effective ally as there are many layers you will have to go through to dismantle your…
