The close of Women’s History Month needs to serve as a call to action for leaders in every industry to create open access and accountability for all claims of poor behaviors that compromise any and all colleagues, and women particularly.
The current chapter on the handling of harassment in women’s work history is atrocious, but all accounts must be respectfully handled, disclosed and never erased. A new era of openness on interactions, behaviors and treatment must emerge.
The recent disclosure made public by civic rights icon Dolores Huerta concerning the crimes of the late Cesar Chavez toward her and many other young women is appalling, but not isolated.
