It is not enough to talk about discrimination and injustices, what counts is being an advocate in the cause too when or if you witness it.

It makes it easier for others to follow but to set good examples of what the work environment shall look like and put everyone in each other's shoes

I completely agree with this statement. The Golden rule also applies stating "Treat others the way you would like to be treated".

Its idealistic to think this level of advocacy, competence and empathy exists in all organizations, and locations, however, its a nice model to at least address the racial trauma so many of use bear day in and day out.  And perhaps, it causes someone's perspective to be a little more inclusive or to be interested in other's experiences.
