Workplace dusties are the worst! They will hound you to no end if you ignore them or turn them down. They always have the biggest egos issues!

It truly baffles me when people voluntarily speak their personal business to their coworkers

Working these days in corporate America as a black woman period is not worth the taxing harassment and torture unless you’re going to get you a rich husband sad but true .. 😮I saw a beautiful caramel black woman get poisoned after a promotion by her female boss

[@Shades_of_Resilience333]

Oh my God wow. That’s why I be saying my protection prayers.

[@griarredondo3334]

That's crazy! Thank God that the likelihood of the happening is very slim!

This is why I don’t eat anyone’s food

Oh my did she die? Pray that God brings justice on that situation!

Rich husbands aren't a guarantee of anything. If Jay-Z can look like he fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down, be a billionaire, *and still* cheat on BEYONCE, what does that say about how men treat "dream girls?

[@Kat_Beezy]

I’ve dealt with this type of energy in the corporate environment in my 20s & age 30. Then I started working in the healthcare field in my early 30s & it became much worse! I’m in my mid 40s now & most of the nurses that I work with are from West Africa and for some reason, I find myself constantly bumping heads with them! They are always being rude & snappy for no reason at all. Whenever I defend myself & speak up, they tell me that “I’m defensive & problematic”…..kinda like what WW or jealous AA women would say! It’s very sad…….

[@Shades_of_Resilience333]

I have heard of notice I have noticed more immigrants are starting to merge in different parts of the USA even in parts that weren’t always culturally diverse. So we will see a lot more different social dynamics at play.

[@myst7201]

I have this problem with west africans too. It's not you, it's them. Try to find a job in healthcare with a more diverse group of collegues.

[@Shades_of_Resilience333]

@@myst7201 I love my current job though and career we have a lot of diversity but even in those spaces it does still happen unfortunately it’s people . When money in is involve people tend to be more cut thoart

[@myst7201]

@@Shades_of_Resilience333 I agree! And you've always got to protect yourself. That's why I work from home now. I have noticed that when you work in spaces with more of a certain ethnic group, you tend stick out more vs a mixed group of collegues.

[@ladysunshine9029]

This is a good video and the information can be used for most people. Honestly, I've e seen this go both ways. Sometimes people who look a certain way expect preferential treatment. Their use to being fawned over and have diffiulties when that doesn't happen.

[@Shades_of_Resilience333]

I agree that it can happen to anyone but I’m just referencing to common things I noticed for my core audience who have maybe dealt with colorism like I have in the workplace or just general women being jealous and sometimes skin tone is at play unfortunately .

@@Shades_of_Resilience333 I understand where you're coming from because I've experienced colorism more than one in the work place or hatred for being attractive and not the stereotypical

[@Liz-wz8dh]

@@Shades_of_Resilience333 I've definitely dealt with colorism. Other black people do have certain expectations and stereotypes of lighter skinned blacks. The ignorance and unprofessionalism is astounding sometimes and if you try to stay away from them because of their attitudes, it just reinforces what they think anyway. I look for more diverse workplaces now as a result. I do not like to work in any atmosphere that is only one race, and especially not all blacks. I say that as someone who used to be highly supportive of black management, but over the years I've learned it just leads to a highly toxic work environment.

[@Liz-wz8dh]

This has been my experience all through my working career. It's so nice to hear it from someone else.

[@narutouchiha5464]

Hi i just wanted to address your youtube bio stating that your only making videos for lightskin women. I am a lightskin man and I’m going through everything you laid out in this video. Lightskin men do not have enough representation in the media at all. I hope you can include us in these discussions as well

[@Highwizardd]

be the change you want to be in the world

[@Shades_of_Resilience333]

I plan to include light skin black men as well soon. Thanks for the feedback I will consider this as well.

[@worldadventuretravel]

Once you understand the realities of capitalism, two things happen: 1) You stop giving anything beyond exactly what you're getting paid to do at work & 2) You get radicalized and start connecting the dots about the entire system so you can organize with others to plot its demise. Don't let this newfound knowledge make you stop after doing step 1). To change this reality for one of us means changing it for all of us. And that takes class consciousness and solidarity.

[@AFocusedLiving]

I love your voice

What's an exotical, and how did you get into my algo? Good positive content though

[@Kat_Beezy]

Exoticals are men/women who are either biracial (not LS), or non biracial and have features such as good hair, pretty light eyes & gorgeous glowing skin! They can be caramel colored or have smooth chocolate mousse skin!

[@Kat_Beezy]

Look at my PFP! I’m considered an exotical BW! I have 3c hair texture & light caramel skin! I missed out on the pretty light eyes, lol

[@musicalprodigy1]

@Kat_Beezy what is "good" hair? People like my hair and my son's hair, so if you mean exotical is a mutt like us then I understand.

[@Kat_Beezy]

@@musicalprodigy1 I’m not a mutt…but ok! 👍🏽

[@Kat_Beezy]

@@musicalprodigy1 I don’t think you should consider yourself as such either 👍🏽
