Black Awareness Month: celebrating stories and voices
At Kokku, we believe in celebrating diversity and creating opportunities for meaningful change. This year’s Black Awareness Month campaign brought forward five powerful stories from our team. These testimonials capture the challenges and resilience of being black in Brazil, the systemic barriers faced, and the transformative impact of career opportunities.
Each story is a testament to how support and inclusion can shift life trajectories and create brighter futures. These heartfelt stories are available on our social media for you to watch, share and get inspired.

As part of the campaign, we invited Victor Silva, our Talent Acquisition Assistant, to write an article reflecting on the importance of Black Awareness Month and its relevance beyond November. Victor explores the role of representation, the ongoing fight for equity, and the everyday efforts required to build an inclusive society. His words are both thought-provoking and inspiring.
