Imagine this.

I'm crying in a bathroom at work.

I barely made it out of the room where an almost all white creative team had just made racist assumptions about Black art and Black people.

Every time I think I can pull it together, I start crying again.

I'm trying to be silent but the sobs won't stop.

Finally, my Chinese American friend, Grace, comes in and refuses to leave without me.

We are going to walk through those doors together.

Grace and I do it.

We spend hours talking.

Eventually, I leave the company.

I was twenty-two years old.

I share the 5 Steps during the episode.
