  Your DEIJ efforts are stagnating because you continue to center whiteness. Creating a truly anti-racist organization requires learning how to identify and rectify the systemic, and often unconscious, centering of white culture and values in the workplace. 
   
  Corporate America continues to struggle with racial equity in a post-George Floyd world. As the United States becomes more diverse and the public consciousness continues to shift, successful racial equity efforts in the workplace are needed now more than ever. 
   
  Decentering Whiteness in the Workplace exposes the ways that white culture and expectations are centered in the modern American workplace and the fears within corporate spaces about talking candidly, openly, and honestly about whiteness, white supremacy, and anti-Blackness. 
   
  Readers will discover: 
  -	A direct and straightforward analysis about what white-centering is 
  -	An evaluation of the different ways that whiteness is centered in the workplace, such as bereavement and holiday policies and dress codes 
  -	A guide on how to recognize and decenter whiteness within oneself and at work 
  -	Solutions for people to contribute individually and systemically to anti-oppression 
   
  Decentering Whiteness in the Workplace provides a crucial guidebook with practical solutions for leaders, DEIJ practitioners, and anyone hoping to truly create an anti-racist workplace.

  Spillover Effects Of The Recent...

  The global financial crisis, which started as the result of the subprime mortgage crisis in the summer of 2007 and triggered by the collapse of Lehman Brothers in 2008, quickly spread globally and thus energized researchers, decision makers to debate on the policy implications, severity across countries, and possible solutions. A central and important question remains regarding who should be blamed for originating and triggering the crisis, although most tend to agree that this was due to the absence of sound regulations to protect savers and lenders, agreement on the part of the corporate banking elite to loot lump sums from the financial markets through fraud, and the outright untruthfulness of credit agencies concerning the inherent risk to the public.Indeed, the global financial crisis (GFC) cost the USA trillions of dollars and, understanding the need for intervention, the US government responded with hash fiscal and monetary expansionary policies in order to stabilise both the economy and the financial market. Additionally, it came up with the biggest ever stimulation programme, which was worth more than one trillion to bring about the recovery by bailing out any banks exposed to bankruptcy and at risk of collapsing.
