Some years ago, I made it past a round of layoffs. I started counting who got let go. At least 70% of them were POCs. Most of the 30% of white people were about to retire and packaged out early. Definitely not representative of the company's demographics.

When I brought this up:
- "I don't believe in affirmative action." 🤔
- "We even cleared the list with our lawyers!" 😑
- "But *I* am not racist!" 🙈

Honey, this is why it's called Systemic Racism.
