Dear Mr. Don Cohen,

Please accept this letter as formal notification that I am resigning from my position as Account Executive with Marketing Media due to repeated experiences with racism among my colleagues. My last day will be June 2.

Thank you so much for the opportunity to work in this position for the past six years. I’ve greatly enjoyed and appreciated the opportunities I’ve had to grow our sales team and pipeline, be a part of creating a great product, and work with my fellow colleagues, and I’ve learned so much about marketing strategy and the digital media space, which I will certainly take with me throughout my career.

I’ll do everything possible to wrap up my duties and train other team members over the next two weeks. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do to help during this transition.

I wish the company continued success, and I hope to stay in touch in the future.

Sincerely,

Anne Acharya

Dear Mr. Smith —

This letter is to express my immediate resignation due to racist behavior in the workplace. Unfortunately, we have to end the positive relationship we’ve had as colleagues in this manner. Unfortunately, there have been multiple instances where I have been verbally inferred and attacked through another employee’s social media account. And I understand that there is very little control that you, as a manager and an employer, can take.

Unfortunately, due to this behavior, it is creating an uncomfortable work environment for me, and I have to decide to step away from this situation. I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused, and I hope we can stay connected in a professional manner for the foreseeable future.

Sincerely,

Sarah
