Ep. 43 - Snatched from Recent Headlines: Beauty Boundaries and Uncivil Treatment in an Ohio Workplace

In this week's episode, I focus on recent headlines about two topics I have discussed in the past: the dangers of synthetic hair and civil rights violations in the workplace.  First, I take a look at a federal bill package brought before the U.S. Congress to protect women from deadly toxins in their beauty products, noting that women of color are more likely to be exposed to harmful chemicals than other women.  I then move on to an Ohio headline about allegations of retaliation, sexual harassment, unfair pay practices, and discrimination at the Ohio Civil Rights Commission — the very organization tasked with investigating allegations of civil rights violations in Ohio.
