Appraisals should follow a market, but unless the bottom dropped out of her market, this is obvious bull...& the 2nd appraisal clinches it (else it would also be low, right?).
Fucked as hell.

Racism is a process not an event.... this demonstrates this.
I have a great friend, he is 2nd generation Afro-Caribbean born in the UK. He is a really smart man. He has a BSc in psychology, an MSc in Public Health and a PHD around infection control. He is the Director of Public Health for our local authority - he holds the public health of 250,000 residents in his hands.
When he got that job the council gave him a company car, it was one of the perks. He got a nice brand new Mercedes. He was subsequently stopped by the police on a frequency of once a month at least for the next 18 months when the car lease came up for renewal. He didn't bother just took the cash and runs around in a 5 yr old Vauxhall - he only gets stopped now if he is out in the early hours - still probably due to rational profiling.
The other one he told me was one high up police officer at a meeting asking him if he could sort out better coffee for him - he thought he was part of the catering staff no the director running the meeting.
It all shows how society has conditioned all this anti-black thinking and how people continue to impose stereotypes over people as soon as they see they are people of colour.

Systemic racism is a thing, no matter what the privileged will say to protect their privileges.
