Sheâs stayed quiet for too long.Now itâs time to speak her truth.
Until twenty-four hours ago, Mickey Hayward was living the life sheâd always dreamed of:
- Working as a full-time writer for a trendy media company (tick)- In a committed, loving relationship (tick)
Now sheâs fired, tossed aside for a younger, more âagreeableâ Black writer. Sick of being overlooked, she responds with an online letter detailing the racism sheâs faced within the industry. And when a media scandal turns Mickeyâs post into a viral sensation, suddenly everyone wants to hear what she has to say.
