First 'chat with HR'

[Iwasonlytryingtohelp]

I mentioned LGB Alliance in a conf call (HR director asked for input on which diversity and inclusion external groups to engage with). Someone stated it was a transphobic organisation, so I just said I was happy to discuss off line. Today I have been approached by my HR business partner 'to chat'.

No, its not about reframing people who support sexism, the reframing is being done by others.

The way to use a secret recording like that is after the meeting you use the recording to produce a contemporaneous written account which you say was based on your immediate recollection of the meeting. This is not a transcript of the recording. That can count as evidence and can sometimes be quite persuasive.

As FightingtheFoo wrote, if you're in a complete bind like Lindsay Shephard simply releasing the recording into the public domain can be extraordinarily effective. However, this is a nuclear option and, as can be seen from her case, it's consumed her life.

Yup that's the one.

Identify politics can be thought of generally as ancillary to neoliberalism in that it shifts the focus away from what we do, onto who we are - away from class and onto the individual- and I can see that TRA works with that. It would make sense that TRA actively arose out of neoliberalism or was ideologically inspired by it, I’m just looking for evidence.

I am so angry that resources and nerves are being spent arguing that water is wet and grass is green.

How did we get here?

This. The BBC news reporting on Maya was astonishing.
