“Today, we celebrate 35 years of Black History Month and this year feels more important than ever. In the last 8 months we have seen an increased focus on addressing racism where it exists in ourselves, our institutions, and our workplaces. This is an ongoing journey and one we want to highlight by amplifying the voices of Black people. I invite you to look at your journey as our panelists share their resiliency stories with you. I also invite you to reflect on their journeys and ask yourself this question 'How can I deepen my passion and commitment to unity with the Black community?'“
