Judas

The irony of this episode title during Easter. I believe Judas was a white man, controversial? Not really.  Judas seemingly a non-threat an allie ended up being a double agent. Every office has one and often more than one.

Let me introduce you to a recent Judas I encountered on Good Friday, however, because I know the historical backdrop of how white people operate I was not surprised, I stood my ground. This same man has been cool I've worked with him on various projects a seemingly healthy professional relationship until he called me on Microsoft Teams asking me if I know how to do my job, he began to shout and was so close to the computer screen he was virtually trying to enter my screen. The verbal violence and racial undertones alone, I had to hold myself as I stood my ground refusing to back down from the aggressive weaponisation of white privilege that Judas chose to use against me in an attempt to bully and oppress me. I cannot be bullied, I say that with my chest because in my early 20's I was bullied in the workplace because I was ignorant and unfamiliar with the strategy of operating and navigating white spaces. Judas got the right one on the wrong day.

I realised recently that the reason I have been positioned in my current workplace/contract is to help me finish my book. The content alone from working here is book-worthy. Yes I am writing a book and for those of you that have been expecting it, it will be worth the wait and yes there will be an audio version.  The book is coming.....
