Not only are black employees still being discriminated against at Facebook, it’s gotten worse...https://t.co/otiRnHiKBg

"Facebook creates a hostile culture where anyone that is non-white is made to feel fear for their job and their safety to report any bad behaviors. Bad behaviors from non-POCs are elevated while normal actions from POCs are treated as aggressive, angry, and abnormal."

I’m definitely not trying to imply this only happens at Facebook but these stories are horrifying. The screenshot of the Blind poll is especially crushing... I mean like the numbers https://t.co/5IbAoT8l0S pic.twitter.com/hy5T8z4LoU

I asked Facebook about the Medium post titled "Facebook empowers racism against its employees of color." The company responded with an apology. “No one at Facebook, or anywhere, should have to put up with this behavior. We are sorry..." https://t.co/i2RA4K4i2P pic.twitter.com/tdRLZ23rDm

Awkward for Facebook that this became public right after the Black community summit meeting there this week. https://t.co/Q7F8lVLr3g

I didn’t realize the company has its own, sort of internal 4chan a that’s been used to sling anti-Black racismhttps://t.co/FRZJ73rC17 pic.twitter.com/shShyhfL2M
The memo details numerous alleged incidents of racism and discrimination. It comes a year after @marksluckie wrote an explosive memo about discrimination at Facebook — and says things have gotten worse since then. https://t.co/zYDTWT05FA

There is sadly nothing in here that surprises me nor is it unique to Facebook. If you think things like this aren’t happening at your company, folks probably just don’t trust you enough to tell you.

“Racism, discrimination, bias, and aggression do not come from the big moments. It’s in the small actions that mount up over time and build into a culture where we are only meant to be seen as quotas, but never heard, never acknowledged, never recognized, and never accepted.” https://t.co/4nYm4Q0oyj

Apologies are so cheap nowadays. As a company, any company, when incidents involve different managers you know you cannot say “it goes against your culture” and you sure know you’ve been asleep at the wheel https://t.co/YZmDrNsIPh

This week was a good reminder of how sexist/racist Silicon Valley remains. See this medium post on what it's like to be a POC at Facebook: https://t.co/8MLSkUn4g5

This does NOT just affect employees. Last month the Senate Intelligence Com confirmed that Russian disinformation operatives targeted "no single group...more than African-Americans" via Facebook during the 2016 election. This undermines democracy. https://t.co/VWqNgiqKYB

An anonymous memo alleging Facebook still has a problem with racial bias is circulating inside the company one year after a former employee complained of racism and discrimination https://t.co/816uu56KuT
Inside the company, Facebook has made a show of recruiting more diverse talent, but not much has changed over the past year, the employee said. https://t.co/vlTmCeUNMU

“We may be smiling.” the anonymous memo says. “On the inside, we are sad. Angry. Oppressed. Depressed. And treated every day through the micro and macro aggressions as if we do not belong here.”https://t.co/Obn9EVvEfr
