Behind the Scenes of DINT 116 - Exploring safety for Black women at work

Here's a glimpse at some of the reasoning behind choices and stories in this week's issue of DINT. Plus we reveal some cool stories and talk about my teen crush and how one of his movies relates to AI

This week we discuss safety at work for Black women. I express my wish for there to be recordings of the ugly things said and done to Black women at work. Now that I think of it, I do have a recording. I’m praying about sharing it as I don’t want to break the law.

At the time I recorded it, I felt hopeless and unheard. I just wanted someone to believe me and be as outraged as I was about what was happening. So I recorded an interaction with my manager. Years later, I see she was a troubled woman in deep pain. Even with perspective I still know that was no excuse for treating me poorly.

We can have compassion and still live in integrity and accountability. It’s a delicate balance but it is possible. We’re not to sacrifice our wellbeing to help someone who may be beyond our help.

We also cover some interesting stories from the world of AI, including an AI personality beauty pageant. Yes, you read that right.

Drop a comment and let me know what you think, my friends. Until next time. - L
