"Today, December 3rd, we celebrate Advocate's Day. This day is observed in memory of our country's great leaders and advocates, who fought for justice, equality, and human rights. Visionary leaders like Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, Mahatma Gandhi, and Nelson Mandela have shown us the path to justice and equality. Today, we pledge to follow in their footsteps and continue to fight for justice and equality...!! #AdvocatesDay #Justice #Equality"

The 60th Anniversary of the Civil Rights Act is a moment to reflect on the immense progress made in advancing equality and justice for all. This landmark legislation, signed into law in 1964, outlawed discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, and paved the way for a more inclusive and equitable society. While we have come a long way, we must also acknowledge that THE FIGHT FOR TRUE EQUALITY IS FAR FROM OVER. There is still much work to be done to address systemic racism, inequities, and barriers that continue to marginalize and oppress communities of color. As we celebrate this milestone, let us rededicate ourselves to the unfinished work of the civil rights movement. By standing united, amplifying diverse voices, and taking action to dismantle oppressive systems, we can honor the sacrifices of those who came before us and build a future where everyone has the opportunity to succeed. #1964CivilRightsAct #60Years #CivilRights #Equality #EqualityMatters

After last night's election results, it’s tempting to retreat, to feel defeated, to shut down, and turn away from what’s happening. But we can’t afford to look away. These results don’t just signal a shift in policy—they represent a direct threat to women's rights, racial justice, and the fight against anti-Black racism. They strike at the core of equity and justice for millions. My initial reaction was to shield myself from the weight of it all, to pretend it doesn’t impact me. But with privilege comes responsibility. This will impact each of us—across borders, across communities. I refuse to ignore the consequences because I know that silence is complicity. Instead, I commit to: ?? Using my voice to hold leaders accountable and to challenge those who align with policies that strip away human rights. ?? Listening and amplifying the voices of women, Black communities, and all who are most impacted. ?? Actively engaging to spread truth, question biases, and fight for justice. This isn’t just about the next four years. It’s about the future of rights, equality, and dignity for all. The fight is only beginning. #WomensRights #AntiBlackRacism #JusticeForAll #WeWontBackDown #Accountability #StandUp

I Believe In: I believe in the beauty of culture and diversity, and that what makes us different from one another is what makes us better people and a better world. I believe in equality for all. I believe in safe passage. I believe in education. I believe in universal healthcare. I believe in climate change. I believe in a life with out tyranny or persecution. I believe in the freedom of religion. I believe in WOMEN'S rights. I believe that black and brown lives matter. I believe that LGBTQA lives matter. I believe that love is love. I believe in a world without cultural, racial, religious, sexual, political, class and gender based violence. I believe that WE ALL have something good to give to this world. I believe that first responder's/cops/military and their families lives matter. I believe that strong leadership begins with compassion and kindness. I believe that teacher's lives matter. I believe that young lives matter. I believe in less prisons and more after-school and early intervention programs. I believe that hate is not born but rather taught. I believe in pro-choice. I believe that women have an inherent right to make their own decisions about their bodies, their health, and well-being without regulation from the government. I also believe in pro-life...meaning I believe that we need to protect and provide for little ones not just until the moment they are born into this world, but until they reach adulthood. I also believe in a fully funded foster-care system. One that is given the necessary resources to truly safeguard these children from abuse and neglect. I believe that nationalism, fascism totalitarianism, racism and white supremacy have no place within this world, in this county, in our cities, our neighborhoods, our streets or our homes. I believe the day that we remain silent, is the day that all humanity is lost. I believe universal Human Rights. I believe that we are stronger together! #Vote #Kindness #Equality #Womensrights #Humanrights

Today, we honor Juneteenth, commemorating the end of slavery in the United States. This day marks a crucial milestone in our history, but it also reminds us that the journey toward true equality and justice is ongoing. At PCC, we recognize that the fight for racial equality is far from over. The echoes of past injustices still resonate today, and it is our responsibility to address these issues within our workplaces and communities. Juneteenth is a time for reflection and action. We are making sure to recommit to advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion, where equality is not just an ideal, but a reality for everyone. #Juneteenth #RacialEquality #DiversityAndInclusion #HRConsulting #CommitmentToChange

A few weeks ago, we hosted a AAF Seattle event at DNA , talking about the state of DEI and our own commitments - in our company and community. As an LGBTQ+ and Black-owned? agency, we are not only diverse owned and led, but we believe in the power of diverse people, ideas and experiences to drive innovation, creativity, effectiveness and efficiency. However there has been a slow “quiet quitting” of DEI efforts across corporate America and a growing political drumbeat of blaming DEI for everything from faulty airplane doors, cargo ship accidents and even failures in security for a former president. I appreciate the 2024 Edelman Trust Barometer Special Report on Business and Racial Justice that documents the business benefit of diversity. Edelman finds that ONLY employers are trusted to address racism in the US and that employees expect their employers to continue to invest MORE in DEI today than ever before. As business leaders, we must continue to take the lead - with “confidence, courage and clarity.” Thank you Edelman. #DifferentWins You can download the report online, or watch this brief video: https://lnkd.in/gJZDERUc

?? **Exploring 'Centering White Victimhood' in Keith Boykin's 'Why Does Everything Have to Be About Race?'** ?? Continuing my deep dive into Keith Boykin's thought-provoking book, I've encountered a compelling section titled "Centering White Victimhood." Here's what stood out: 1?? **White Fragility:** This part echoes themes from Robin DiAngelo's "White Fragility," discussing how defensive reactions during racial conversations can significantly hinder progress toward racial equality. It's a critical look at the obstacles to open, productive dialogues. ?? 2?? **Affirmative Action Myths:** In Chapter 7, Boykin challenges the widespread myth of affirmative action as reverse discrimination, presenting a robust argument for its necessity in achieving true equity in opportunities. ?? 3?? **Layers of Privilege:** Chapter 8 illuminates the complex layers of privilege, reminding us that racial advantages exist independently of socioeconomic status or gender. It’s a powerful call to acknowledge and address these privileges. ?? Each chapter adds another layer of understanding to the critical conversations about equity and privilege in our society. ?? How do you approach discussions about privilege and affirmative action in your professional or personal life? Let's share insights and learn from each other! #SocialJustice #KeithBoykin #WhiteFragility #AffirmativeAction #WhitePrivilege #DiversityAndInclusion
