I am sorry you experienced this too, and more than once how awful. I am glad the article resonates, it helped me to articulate the pain. And yes, it's sad when women don't.

This article is extremely important and illuminates a literacy that is critical but generally nonexistent. Workplaces can be treacherous and even lethal. The processes involved in mobbing and the impacts of betrayal on victims ought to become a language that we can all speak fluently. Silencing is the main outcome of this type of fear based competition whereby an organization behaves like a cult - excising individuals to perpetuate itself. Michele is, I believe, unusual in her capacity to assert her voice in such an aftermath of personal catastrophic attack. Yes the witch hunt is real. I agree: let’s talk about the pain that endures. Let’s not be silent. Let’s be honest and outspoken. We must still rise. We are not actually dead!
