I was laid off from Carolinas Healthcare System because CHS wanted a consistent business model between their two nursing homes at least that is what they told me. But I feel that Carolinas Healthcare System would rather eliminate a position entirely before they would give it to an overqualified Black female such as myself.
CHS has had documented instances of Blacks filing EEOC charges since 1974. This is over 40 years of Blacks feeling that they can not advance within Carolinas Healthcare System as well as Blacks feeling blacklisted and retaliated against when they do speak up for the employee rights.
They are a multi-billion dollar public, non-profit organization that can do better and that should do better. I want to empower employees to watch the dynamics of their work environments so that they can identify when to move on to another company or another department before it gets unbearable.
The EEOC can document employee discrimination complaints, but the EEOC can not save employee jobs. I spoke about these issues and more on the February 18, 2014 segment of "Context of White Supremacy" (The C.O.W.S.).

Search for the date 2/18/2014 in the show archives to listen to the three hours segment.
This program also discusses the concept that "fair" refers to a White Supremacy standard. So the term "workplace fairness" should really be termed "workplace justice" or workplace "correctness." It's a power packed three hours with a pre-recorded opening discussion before the main discussion. Listen and Learn.
