I work in a fortune 50 corporate HR department.

Specifically in the department that is responsible for culture, training, and affirmative action (and yes the department that creates all those company propaganda videos). I complained internally about being abused/intimidated into an explicit departmental plan to promote unqualified white people over minorities (which I didn’t submit to).

Maybe “HR” will come back and fire everyone involved after they finish their investigation (company is so big we have HR for HR), or maybe a lawyer will take my case.

Believe it or not, there are HR people with souls who do the best they can with what they’ve got and actually want to see people treated with the respect and dignity everyone deserves as human beings. Furthermore, there are HR people who get pissed when their shitty companies expect them to do otherwise. (There’s really more of us than you think- you just don’t know because ops/management blames us for everything.)
