I think about the color of my skin daily for a couple of reasons. First, I am very proud of being Black, especially a Black woman, as I witness the daily resilience and level of excellence demonstrated and celebrated in terms of how we live our lives, care for and serve our families and community, build and maintain strong friendships and support systems, and display our talents in our professions. Second, I am mindful of the color of my skin throughout my daily encounters as I experience and observe how people interact with me.
I do believe that people can change. If they are open to listening to understand, learning and unlearning, and seeking growth for themselves, they can change. I believe it is all about exercising our choices to be whomever we desire to be regardless of the expectations and pressures that are placed on us by our families, friends, workplace, and society. Change takes desire and courage.
These past few years have been incredibly tumultuous and evolving, where we have witnessed how complex and messy our world is.
In a world of tick-a-box trainings and quick fixes, we at Be Equitable are going after something more satisfying -- we’re here for the transformations. For the forward thinkers and future leaders who know the journey is long and are still ready, we see you and we want to partner with you.
Let’s go beyond the buzzwords to create workplaces that work for people of all races, ethnicities, identities, and abilities. It won’t be neat. And it certainly won’t be simple. Our BE team is ready and committed to get it done.
As we enter this next chapter of our story, we invite you to BE bold, BE inclusive, and BE authentic to the vision you have for yourself and your organization. And together we can create workplaces that are just and equitable for all.
