Garrett Quote #463

Quote from Garrett in Hair Care Products

Dina: I think a lot of us wanna help, but we just have blind spots when it comes to this stuff. I mean, when I was growing up, we were told the goal was to not see race.
Garrett: Okay, see, I don't know who started telling white people that. I'm assuming it was other white people, but you shouldn't ignore race. You should be aware of how being Black affects our daily lives.
Earl: Wait, you're Black? I thought you were Dominican.
Garrett: What? No.
Earl: You're not even a little Dominican? Like Puerto Rican?
Nia: That's... not how it works. But Garrett's right. We're dealing with micro aggressions all the time.

Quote from Garrett

Glenn: [on video call] There they are! Thanks, Demetrius!
Demetrius: Yo, Jonah stopped answering his phone too.
Glenn: So Garrett. How are those pizzas? Are you enjoying them and feeling appreciated?
Garrett: People seem to like them, but I think we're good on pizza, Glenn.
Glenn: Yeah, well, it just... Some of the white employees were upset that they didn't get any pizza, and, you know, the point of all this was to make everyone happy, so...
Garrett: I thought the point of this was to apologize to the Black employees. Either they're reparations, or they're not.
Glenn: Okay, well, can't you think of it like this? Like, for you, the pizzas are reparations for racism. And for the white employees, they're reparations for not getting pizza.
Garrett: Okay, so it's an all lives matter pizza party? Fine, great. Okay, that's perfect. [over PA] Attention, all Cloud 9 employees in all departments. Please report to the break room for pizza because apparently, now everyone gets pizza. Never mind that the basic infrastructure of this country makes it so that one group of people gets way more pizza than others! Or that some of us spent over 400 years forcibly making pizza for white people!
