Want to read something really pathetic. It will make you throw up
I have a friend that works for a major corporation. He was sent this email today:
To: All xxxx teammates
The murder of George Floyd has reverberated in every city and town across our nation for nearly a year. The pain and frustration it sparked is another terrible reminder that, to this day, some of our fellow Americans suffer from racism and inequity.
Yesterday’s verdict brought a measure of relief and justice to George Floyd’s family. But for us, let’s use this moment to reflect on the progress we have made as a company on diversity and inclusion and renew our commitment to long-lasting change, to embrace our diversity and root out discrimination or bias, regardless of gender, race, sexual orientation, disability or religion – within our communities and our company.
We can demonstrate our commitment to diversity and inclusion by listening and learning – from each other, our customers and communities.
In 2020, we did just that with more than 550 Pathways to Inclusion conversations within our company. This year, we are continuing the conversation through our “Let’s Talk About” series, which is sponsored by leaders and our employee resource groups. These discussions continue to bring us closer and help us better understand each other’s unique perspectives. Inclusion training is also being carried forward to help us build the skills and awareness to go forward together.
We are also at work in our communities and we continue to make diversity, equity and inclusion a focus of our philanthropic giving. We’re also engaging local organizations and leaders to understand how we can promote progress on the social justice and racial equity issues our communities face.
As I said in my email last June, I continue to believe that we have an opportunity now to make something good come of this horrible act. Let’s do our part to listen, learn and support each other and to help our communities. Let’s be the change we want to see.
Thank you for all that you do.
