Imagine if your asshole neighbor put that energy into something useful. Imagine if they all did. It would be a different world. I hope your knee feels better soon, Sheryl.
I had a job interview in my old home town yesterday. It’s over 3.5 hours from family, and I moved to Michigan to be closer to family, so I’m a bit ambivalent. But late in the interview they asked about committee work, and I mentioned how proud I was to be a founding member of my current team’s DEIA group, completely forgetting that the town hosted a unit of the Klan until just a couple of years ago. The atmosphere got a little chilly thereafter, so I don’t know that this is a choice I’ll need to make.
I had an interview Thursday with a different community college that’s a lot closer, and they asked me to tell them about my experiences promoting diversity at my current job. I suspect that would be a far better fit.
