  That's good to know - It's strange to me that they don't see how this language could be seen the wrong way on a layoff email. It's not a leap to read this in a discriminatory way.

  I've seen you copy/paste thus statement a couple of times in this forum. Can you explain the context if possible, so it makes sense to "outsiders"? We like to learn here.

    Ive copy pasted it twice, It's a thing, a value - "Be anti racist", we have support groups and communities and regular engagement built on this principal. This was an internal email , although they should have know that this goes out, even then I don't think they would anticipated it. It absolutely does not mean they skewed the results or targeted to keep their diversity intact. what hes saying is we made sure there was no bias , that's all. Although it might read like something else, anyone from twilio would understand as it's a common phrasing.

It is in their 8-K filing to the SEC, how could it not be anticipated that would be public? >Although it might read like something else because the way you are using "Anti-Racism" is not the same as what the wider public know to be the "Anti-Racism" popularized by Ibram Kendi which is much more than just "not racist" or not biased as you claim here
