In her book Citizen, Claudia Rankine asks a question so many have asked ourselves: "What did he just say? Did she really just say that? Did I hear what I think I heard? Did that just come out of my mouth, his mouth, your mouth?"

It's normal to feel alone after experiencing or observing injustice at work but you're usually not! Ask questions and build your support system so you feel equipped to take whatever next step feels right for you.
