Amplifying black voices everyday is one way we promote inclusion and diversity. Speak for those who wouldn't otherwise have access or recognition in your circles. Black History Month is about amplifying black voices and black stories. It's about seats at tables we both created and infiltrated. It's about his-tory and her-story and all the stories yet to be told and yet to be written. History is to be cherished, learned from, and passed down to each generation. In a time where History is constantly being rewritten or misrepresented, take this time to amplify those that might otherwise be erased or unheard. Use this thread to tag and promote your favorite Black owned businesses, artists, creators, leaders, and more. Happy Black History Month!! 💜

This is not a training to address stereotypes, bias and discrimination for people that have black colored hair. 🤦🏽♀️ The term “black hair” does not refer simply to hair color. It relates to styles, textures and/or the natural methods of hair care for people of African American, Caribbean or “Black” decent. In my experience a black person with curls, coils or locs (not dreads), braids or an Afro is perceived differently (even subconsciously) in most corporate environments than other races wearing their natural textures. #deileaders #deib #inclusiveleadership
