Royalty

I’m curious… in the internal comm’s that went out in your workplace about the queen’s passing, was there any space given to:

• acknowledging the trauma this could stir up for marginalised folk?
• offering spaces and permission to express a range of responses?
• explicit naming of the complex and harmful history of the monarchy?
• any acknowledgment of the right to opt out or feel neutral?

Or did the message contain an assumption that everyone would be experiencing grief /mourning /respect etc?

I realise you might not want to answer this question in public, so feel free to DM me or to take this as an opportunity to reflect even if you don’t answer in comments
