Beyond the Default: Reimagining Workplace Equity

Imagine walking into a workplace where your name, hair, accent, or cultural background never become barriers to your success. Where systems are designed with you in mind, not as an afterthought. This is the powerful vision behind "Decentering Whiteness in the Workplace." Published amid America's racial reckoning following George Floyd's murder, this groundbreaking work challenges us to examine how whiteness - not as a skin color but as a power structure - shapes our professional environments in ways both obvious and invisible. What makes this approach revolutionary is how it shifts the conversation from simply "adding diversity" to fundamentally reimagining workplace systems that have privileged white experiences as the unquestioned default for generations.
