Were They Afraid We Were Planning a Coup D'etat?

I spent my first summer during Columbia Law School at a firm in Philadelphia described as one of the best places in the city for black lawyers. I believed that if there was any place where I would have an equal chance at opportunities, be treated fairly and succeed, this would be it. There were three black female summer associates out of sixty that year but any time all three of us were in an office talking, one of the partners would knock on the door to see how we were doing.

I had a manager who would touch my neck

I think people who make it are the people who can carefully mask their authenticity and go along with whatever their manager wants. I had a manager who would touch my neck in a less than appropriate manner.
