Juneteenth. It's a day filled with mixed emotions. It's a time to celebrate because it marks the end of slavery in America, but it's also a somber reminder of the struggles that many of our ancestors faced. It's a time to reflect on the long and difficult road to freedom for enslaved Americans and recommit to the fight for equality and justice, knowing that no matter what challenges we face, we can overcome them. Let's take a moment to remember the past, recommit to the future, and celebrate the strength of the human spirit. And above all, let's affirm that every single person deserves to be treated with equality and dignity. #juneteenth2024 #progress #equality #diversity #inclusion

Reflecting on the profound impact of Juneteenth, it’s crucial to recognize that slavery's legacy extends beyond the denial of equal pay; it fundamentally denied the right to inclusivity. #Inclusivity means more than #representation; it means breaking down systemic barriers that have long marginalized foreign scholars and other underrepresented groups. As we commemorate Juneteenth, let’s commit to fostering a truly inclusive academic and professional environment where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. #Juneteenth #Inclusivity #Equality #Diversity #AcademicCommunity #InternationalScholars

Juneteenth, short for “June Nineteenth,” commemorates the effective end of slavery in the United States on June 19, 1865 - 159 years ago. As we reflect on this historic day, it's crucial to acknowledge that there is still much work to be done. It is imperative that we all come together to enhance diversity, equity, and inclusiveness in our workplaces. #Juneteenth #Diversity #Equity #Inclusiveness

Today, we commemorate Juneteenth, the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. This significant day honors the moment on June 19, 1865, when Union soldiers arrived in Galveston, Texas, and announced the freedom of the last enslaved people, over two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. Juneteenth is a powerful reminder of the ongoing journey toward equality and justice for all. As we reflect on this day, let's commit to fostering inclusivity, understanding, and respect within our communities and workplaces. Celebrating Juneteenth isn't just about recognizing the past; it's about building a future where freedom and opportunity are truly available to everyone. Let’s use this day to educate, engage, and take actionable steps toward a more equitable society. #Juneteenth #FreedomDay #Inclusion #Diversity #Equality

Our histories matter. Iowans have a wide range of mindsets about diversity, each influenced by life experiences and the kind of exposure they've had to other ways of thinking and behaving. When we are trying to build a more inclusive community, respecting each individual's journey helps us appreciate the range of perspectives around us. Learn more about the different mindsets about diversity on our blog. https://ow.ly/ycPp50QwyYy #Diversity #Equity #Inclusion #Belonging #BelongingAtWork

It's been more than 150 years since the abolishment of slavery, yet just 10 years ago, the last reported enslaved African American, Mae Louise Walls Miller, passed away. Slavery is not distant history -- it's a recent reality with generational impact. Celebrate #Juneteenth today but remember, our work is far from over. We need intentional interventions to not only level the playing field, but also address discriminatory systems, policies, and practices in the workplace. We discussed some best practices from the legal perspective during last week's Brave Lil' Convos. Check out takeaways here: https://lnkd.in/gTYzt9ng And read more about Mae Louise Walls Miller here: https://lnkd.in/gTiDEEch #Juneteenth #WednesdayWisdom #Equality #SocialJustice #Diversity #Inclusion #AffirmativeAction #Mentorship #Empowerment #ColorfulConnections #diversity #equity #inclusion #diversityandinclusion #Diversityatwork #Belonging #DiversityMatters

Privilege is not a dirty word. Lay down your defensiveness. Privilege doesn’t mean your life hasn’t been hard. It is the absence of barriers, barriers you’re probably not even aware of, but which others have had to endure. It is the lack of access, access to resources and spaces of decision-making and power. And so as an ally, how are you helping marginalised folks by removing barriers and sharing power? Pic Credit: Carlos A.
