This is next-level insanity. Nothing says “Season’s Greetings” like racism and exclusion.  Celebrating the diversity of their community is a noble idea, but why can’t all people participate? What happened to welcoming allyship from all groups? Essentially, they are celebrating inclusion by…excluding others? I think (but am open to correction) the ridiculousness of this speaks for itself, so I won’t elaborate much further, but give this scenario some consideration if the opposite were executed—if a party that excluded any other specific race isn’t acceptable, how is this? Diversity and inclusion are about eliminating barriers, and this simply cannot happen when people are overtly being excluded.    #diversityequityinclusion #racism #criticalthinking

Join us for our 4th Annual George Floyd Memorial Lecture, where we delve into the theme "The Future of EDI" at our upcoming virtual symposium. Scheduled for Thursday, May 23, 2024, on Zoom, from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm EST, this event promises to be a transformative experience. We have assembled a lineup of experts and prolific speakers who will empower delegates from around the world with strategic tips, tools, and techniques to advance the movement for social justice. In the face of pressing global crises, such as the ongoing genocide in Gaza, the war in Ukraine, Sudan, and other regions, the importance of advocating for equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) has never been more crucial. As Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. eloquently stated, "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." Indeed, the existence of injustice anywhere undermines the fabric of justice everywhere. Therefore, it is imperative that we come together to address systemic inequalities and promote a more just and equitable society for all. Register now to secure your spot at this pivotal event. Let us unite in our commitment to building a future where EDI principles are upheld, and social justice prevails. Together, we can make a difference.

National Co-ordinating Centre for Public Engagement (NCCPE) released the article about our civic- engaging! When we use the term 'civic', the first question that arises is 'who would the person be?' In our project, we identified four groups and assigned the 'optimal' role for each party to ensure inclusivity and diversity, moving beyond merely a 'box-ticking' civic engagement exercise.  📍General public: This included any member of the public who need not be interested in or affected by advertising but willing to learn more about advertising norms and practices.   📍Social Sector: Social organizations involved mainly with women and related underrepresented communities.   📍Experts from Various Fields: Experts broadly comprised members of academia and practitioners in various fields.   📍Business agencies and companies: Agencies and companies creating products/ offering services and directly involved with advertisements.  See full of article from here! https://lnkd.in/ek4hKnR5 Provided info by Raisha Jesmin and Rika Holden

The panel focused on seeing the red flags re: is DEI really supported. Some things to look for: is DEI a department of one, is the function reporting to the CEO, what are the specific outcomes and progress milestones and am I championing things to get support or am I amplifying what is core to the business. This a journey, don’t bring unnecessary baggage, it will slow you down.
