workplace culture

A new report from the Society For Human Resource Management shows one third of Black workers feel undervalued in the workplace compared to 18 percent of white workers. Johnny C. Taylor Jr., the president of SHRM joined NBCLX to discuss further how the American workplace continues to wrestle and struggle with racism.

Many companies have been tweeting support of Black Lives Matter, but one in four companies still has an all-white executive suite. Jamillah Bowman Williams, an associate professor at Georgetown Law, says companies need to do a “culture check” and talk directly to their black employees about racism in the workplace.
