Juneteenth is celebrated on June 19th each year and marks the famous day in 1865 when the enslaved people of Texas learned they were finally free, a full two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was delivered by President Lincoln. Juneteenth symbolizes the hard fought end of slavery in the United States. The holiday is a time for modern Americans to reflect on the struggles of African Americans throughout our history and to celebrate their culture and progress. In recent years, Juneteenth has been recognized as a federal holiday, promoting freedom and America's ongoing journey towards equality. Century Park Associates prides itself on the cultivation of a diverse workforce, and in this regard, Juneteenth holds special significance. Celebrating Juneteenth acknowledges the diverse histories and contributions of all within our communities, reinforcing the company’s commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, and enhancing our sense of unity and family. Recognizing Juneteenth educates and enriches us all, creating more knowledgable and empathetic associates, and a thriving, respectful, and cohesive workplace. #CenturyParkCares #Juneteenth #DEIB #CenturyParkAssociates

Pivot Point: Stephen Miller and AFL are at it again. They have been hunting out DEI practices at over 20 major corporations and now turn their focus to the NFL and the Rooney Rule. My position is unequivocal: AFL's stance seeks to narrow rather than broaden talent pools by perpetuating the exclusion of underrepresented groups. Their assertion that adding people of color to candidate pools inherently implies inferior qualifications is not only false but also discriminatory. This flawed logic disregards the reality of industries like professional sports, where players of color dominate the field. Denying qualified individuals from underrepresented groups the opportunity to compete based on their race is not only unjust but also detrimental to fostering diversity and inclusion in our workplaces. It's imperative to challenge such misguided perspectives and advocate for equitable opportunities for all.

In honor of Juneteenth, which occurs every year on June 19th, many employers now recognize and observe this day to demonstrate their commitment to racial justice and equity. While recognizing Juneteenth is an important step, organizations must apply equitable practices every day of the year. Incorporating Juneteenth into a company’s broader initiatives can reinforce its commitment to these values. Many companies may offer the day as a paid holiday or provide holiday pay to those who work. Beyond this, employers can use the time around the holiday to foster an inclusive environment and demonstrate their commitment to racial equity through various initiatives. Some companies also use this day to educate all employees about Black people's rich and challenging legacy in the US including the eventual abolition of slavery. However, it's not just about recognizing a single day. It's about how organizations treat the Black people they serve as customers and clients and support Black employees daily. Real change comes from everyday actions and decisions that ensure fairness, respect, and equity for all. At Equius Group, we believe working towards racial equity is an ongoing journey. Recognizing. Juneteenth is just one piece of a much larger puzzle. #Juneteenth #FreedomDay #EquiusGroup

As we mark Juneteenth, a pivotal moment in history that signifies freedom and the triumph of human rights, it's crucial for businesses to introspect. This day reminds us of the importance of aligning public declarations with internal practices. Across the corporate landscape, we see many organizations commemorating holidays like Juneteenth on social media. However, the real measure of commitment to these values is reflected in how companies operationalize the principles of freedom, equality, and respect for history within their own walls. It's not just about a day off; it's about fostering a culture that truly embraces diversity and inclusion. It's about providing opportunities for employees to learn, reflect, and engage with the community. It's about ensuring that our actions resonate with the messages we broadcast to the world. #Juneteenth #CorporateIntegrity #DiversityAndInclusion #SocialResponsibility #CulturalAwareness
