The Token Black For Black History Month

The company that I work for, tried to use my image and likeness for their Black History Month social media blitz. I’m one of about six Black people at the company. The company has just under 500 employees. The Black diversity group has more non-Black people than actual Black people. When I asked them to remove my picture from their ads, they hesitated, but in the end removed it. Haven’t felt this used and abused in a while.
