Trilogy Federal’s Post

Juneteenth represents not just the end of slavery, but the beginning of a long journey towards equality. It's a day to acknowledge the injustices of the past and their lasting impact on our society. It's a day to celebrate the contributions of Black Americans to our nation's culture, economy, and progress. It's also a day to recommit ourselves to the unfinished work of achieving racial equity and justice. #JuneteenthReflection #JusticeForAll

In recognition of Black History Month, we celebrate the many contributions Black Americans have made to the rich tapestry of our country’s story. We also note though that according to recent data from the Federal Reserve’s Survey of Consumer Finances, the racial wealth gap in America continues to expand. Whatever our individual situation, it’s important for all of us to take steps toward ensuring our financial health. For inspiration, here is a wonderful article about 10 successful Black women in finance. #BlackHistoryMonth #WomenInFinance #FinancialWellbeing https://bit.ly/4bsSLcK

As Black History Month begins, we recognise the remarkable contributions, resilience, and achievements of the black community who have shaped the world across every field - especially fire.   This month is a time for reflection and education, and today we're focusing on a few individuals that fought for the safety of people and property despite the hardships they faced, breaking barriers not only in their time, but in ours too. At Millwood, our commitments to diversity, equity, and inclusion aren’t just values for one month - they are fundamental pillars for progress all year long. The journey toward equality is ongoing, and each of us has a role to play. Together, let’s uplift Black history, culture, and stories - not only during this month but every day!   #BlackHistoryMonth #FireSafety #DiversityAndInclusion #FireProtection #BlackExcellence #CelebrateBlackHistory #InclusionMatters #EquityAndJustice

August is National Black Business Month, a time to recognize and celebrate the vital contributions of Black-owned businesses to the U.S. economy and their role in promoting diversity and equity. According to the Pew Research Center, about 3% of American businesses are Black-owned, and nearly 58% of Black adults believe that supporting Black businesses is a powerful way to advance equality in the U.S. Let's come together to celebrate and support Black businesses! #NationalBlackBusinessMonth #SupportBlackBusinesses #SmallBiz #SmallBusiness #SBDC #PASBDC

Today, we celebrate Juneteenth, a day of liberation and reflection. On June 19, 1865, over 250,000 enslaved Black Americans in Texas finally learned they were free—more than two years after President Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation. While Juneteenth marks the end of slavery, it's important that we remember and acknowledge that the journey to freedom was long, and the fight for equality and equity continues today. A more equitable and equal society is possible through our combined efforts. By educating yourself and sharing what you learn, advocating for change, engaging with local organizations focused on social justice and helping amplify those voices. Engage with organization like the Running Industry Diversity Coalition, who are actively dismantling barriers and expanding black-ownership in the running industry. What are some other organizations that deserve our attention for their work in creating a more equitable world?

🌟 Bringing Black History Month to a close, but keeping the momentum alive! 🌟 As we bid farewell to Black History Month at the stroke of midnight, here's a gentle reminder: our commitment to supporting the Black community doesn't punch out with the calendar. Let's use this month as a springboard to keep amplifying voices, advocating for change, and fostering inclusivity every single day. History months are more than just a box to check—they're a catalyst for ongoing action and progress. There's no finish line when it comes to inclusion efforts, and every step forward matters. Let's make #365Black366LeapYear a reality by continuously uplifting and empowering historically excluded communities. Together, let's keep the flame burning bright beyond the confines of a single month. Here's to progress, here's to unity, and here's to making a difference every day of the year! 💫🙌 #KeepTheMomentum #BlackHistoryEveryday
