Happy Women's History Month! Let's celebrate by supporting our fellow women. Here are a few ways to make a difference: ✨ Show your support for small businesses run by women by making a purchase or sharing their social posts on your own platforms. ✨ Request female musical acts on the radio- yes, actually call in! Let's amplify the voices of women in music. ✨ Educate yourself on women's suffrage, moments of overcoming and empowerment. By doing so, we can be inspired and supportive instead of offended. ✨ Tell the women around you how important and valued they are. This is vital! ✨Most importantly, let's make moves to help women coming up behind us. We need each other, and by coming together, we can make a difference. Let's lift each other up and celebrate the achievements of women everywhere. Let’s help all women become forces to be reckoned with! #WomensHistoryMonth

Check out some exciting news below!

The outdated notion that women's success and prosperity hinge on marrying wealthy men is not only archaic but also detrimental. Growing up, this mindset was all too common. Fortunately, it's becoming less prevalent. Despite the persistent challenge of sexism, which infiltrates every facet of society and unjustly privileges men, there's a visible shift occurring. The transformative stories I've encountered through human rights cases and the evident progress in my daughter's generation fuel my optimism. While we are far from achieving full gender equity, the path forward is becoming clearer to men, thanks to the collective efforts and evolving perspectives. My aspiration for my daughter's generation is not just to glimpse the road to equality but to travel it confidently. Thank you, Jade Bonacolta, for a post that stands out as a beacon of progress amidst what is sometimes the same business focussed self-help posts. As I'm sure you know, among a sea of LinkedIn celebrities who are doing great things and sharing important information in bite size chunks, there are very few women. As one of those celebrities, keep doing what you're doing. #DiversityAndInclusion #HumanRights #WomenInLeadership #GenderEquality #Empowerment #SocialJustice #InclusiveLeadership #ChangeMakers #FutureOfWork #DEI #womenleaders #womenshistorymonth

Singular labels have been put on women for generations. In fact, 94% of women have had labels imposed on them by others, and only 16% feel the labels given to them by others align with how they would define their true selves. Cultural expert and New York Times-bestselling author Amanda Montell will discuss how language has evolved over time and how women can flip the script to celebrate their individuality. Following the conversation, participants will engage in small group discussions with Global Ambassadors Angela Fullmer and Juanita Sepulveda about how these limiting labels continue to affect women today and what they can do to reclaim their identity. Join us as we explore how to take back the labels used against us. This is a Dress for Success Worldwide Offering in partnership with TJ MAXX. These virtual workshops fill up fast, and registration is required to reserve your space.

March is Women's History Month! We honor women of color and their critical work in the movement, while acknowledging the challenges they continue to face. In this piece from 2018, NRCDV's Ivonne Ortiz asked, "As a woman of color, how can I find my place in the domestic violence movement?" In 2024, the question is still very relevant. Read on to learn more about the history and challenges of women of color in the movement and to find strategies for advocates of color to stay connected and bring their whole selves to the work! https://ow.ly/hITP50QJi0y

“This creates a never-ending cycle that shows up in every part of social life, from the workplace, academia, legal, and healthcare systems, among others. For power brokers, it may be time to re-examine these systems of oppression that they have frequently perpetuated. It may not be enough to carry on with business as usual in hopes that diversity, equity, and inclusion training will mitigate misogynoir. Instead, a good start would be to start listening to Black women whose voices have often been stifled, dismissed, or ignored because there is a false perception of unintelligence. But listening alone is not enough and intentional applied action towards listening and pushing for change is invaluable.” This post from ForbesBLK resonated deeply with me this morning. Usually, I like to focus on the positive gains for my organizations and my colleagues. This has been a week of great movement forward for The Undivide Project and BonneTerre. However, it was marred by this very behavior. In the last 48 hours, I removed myself from not one, not two, but three situations where this was at play. The issues ranged from a book publisher suggesting my work be co-authored by a white person who had no contribution to said work other than writing ABOUT ME, to a funder asking where my "co-founder" was and then being invited to participate in a forum on gender... the whole business is tiresome and not worth the emotional or intellectual space it takes up. What I do not understand about any of this is the audacity in the asking. I have always been very clear in all of my roles that I have zero tolerance for this kind or any other kind of racist behavior. It is not the job of Black women to fix and it is certainly not to tolerate these behaviors while others “learn to do better” as the cliches go. For my colleagues who have to live and work through misogynoir, never forget there is power and peace in walking away. People are creating productive spaces and opportunities where your energies are better spent.

In this month's CGC Journal, we dive into the War Waged Against Black Women and DEI. Plus, we ask the critical question: Why do a majority of White women vote polar opposite of the majority of Black women ... and all nonwhite women? We want to hear from you. Join our co-learning community and let's have a conversation. To make substantive progress we must understand the enemies of our progress. https://lnkd.in/gctvFRz5
