Let me say one more thing: white people literally burned down a whole “black wall street” to maintain power. Literally scorched the whole earth so people couldn’t prosper from it. How quickly we forget history when it comes to creating change for black lives.

The police continued to protect this woman as if she was not the threat and cause of the commotion. She had no regard for people’s children and was deliberate in her attempts. A minor inconvenience for #GeorgetownKaren turned into an attempt to murder black lives.

No arrests were made. In fact, the only person handcuffed was Aaron Robinson, an African American male who was hit and rolled on the street by #GeorgetownKaren . The first question they asked him was for his information, NOT if he is okay. It took them 45min to ask for HER info!

Although I never have to clarify my experience let me say this. The video was AFTER she revved through our crowd. In an attempt to not get put UNDER the car, people jumped up and the crowd began screaming for her to stop because she had no intent of stopping until so.

My problem with just “increasing diversity” by adding POC to your executive boards is that you’re now bringing people into a hostile environment. Diversifying requires a culture change in your workspace. It’s an active process, not passive!
