How those in power use "othering" to retain power in our hierarchical system

When one demographic occupies the majority of power positions in the U.S. workforce, abuse of power through "othering people" becomes a tactic for retaining that power. In this episode, I talked about the culture of abuse of power with Dr. Tonisha Pinckney. Dr. Toni shares her experiences at work as a Black woman and her views on how race, gender, and other ways of "othering" play out in a hierarchical system.
