Description

For many Black professionals, HR isn’t protection, it’s surveillance.

In this episode, we’re naming the truth that too often gets whispered behind closed doors: Human Resources departments are not neutral. From weaponized PIPs to dismissive responses to harm, Black leaders are navigating systems designed to protect the institution, not the individual.

We break down:

• The difference between HR and real accountability

• How race shapes the narrative around “performance”

• The subtle signs you’re being set up, and what to do next

• How so-called inclusive benefits are often just PR, not policy

• What it looks like to build safety and strategy outside the system
