Celebrating Juneteenth: A Day of Freedom and Shared Humanity 🫂 Today, we celebrate Juneteenth, a day that marks the end of slavery in the United States. It's a powerful reminder of the fight for freedom and the resilience of the human spirit. But Juneteenth is more than just a historical event. It's a call to action to build a more equitable future. By acknowledging the struggles of the past, we can open the door to genuine empathy and understanding. Sharing these stories and experiences allows us to see the world through each other's eyes, fostering a sense of connection and dismantling barriers. This, in turn, empowers us to create workplaces where everyone feels valued, respected, and has the opportunity to thrive. Let's use this day to celebrate a culture of belonging, to engage in open conversations, and to commit to building a future where everyone can reach their full potential. #Juneteenth #Belonging #Empowerment

Being an Ocean Ally is for everyone! From taking a small action to show your solidarity and support for underrepresented groups, to uplifting those whose voices often go unheard, there are many ways to be an Ocean Ally. What is Allyship? Allyship is the ongoing practice of recognizing your privileges and working to build equitable relationships based on trust and accountability among individuals or groups of underrepresented individuals. Why is being an ally so important? By being an ally, you become a champion for diversity and inclusion, support creating a safe and welcoming space for all, and help improve the state of DEI&A in our ocean community. What can you do to foster allyship? Be open-minded, treat others with kindness, and respect, be willing to speak up, educate and be an ally for underrepresented individuals or groups in the face of discrimination (when safe to do so), educate yourself, and be willing to confront your own privileges, prejudices and biases, even if it is uncomfortable to do so. #Allyship #DEIA #Oceans #OceanAllies
