For a lawsuit, you need to prove harm.

Since you already work there, you would need to be passed over for a promotion by a POC, in order for you to act.

Until then, you haven't, personally, been harmed.

If you had a list of qualified applicants who applied for the job, but were ignored because they were white, then you could send this evidence to them so they could sue. You would, of course, get no money from this.

Alternatively, you could sit on it, wait until they hire a person of color, then post the evidence on the craigslist jobs section in your area for anyone who applied there that was white. Then, they could sue your company. You would, of course, get nothing in this case.

If you are trying to make money for yourself, then this is what you do.

You say nothing.

Then, you slowly build a case of harassing behavior against you because you are white. You use the evidence you have to corroborate your claims. In this case, you could make money. However, you will need a clever lawyer and you, yourself, will need to be clever in order to pull this off for maximum effect. Getting fired, after you are harassed, then being replaced with a POC would be the maximally profitable outcome.

If you just leak the information, wait until about half way through October. Give it to every news outlet.
