It's never too early to be thinking about #Juneteenth and how your organization can meaningfully observe the holiday. I shared some ideas and best practices on the Equity At Work blog:

KSM is closed today in honor of Juneteenth. Two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation, Union troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, on June 19, 1865, with news of freedom for those still enslaved. Today, we reflect on history and celebrate freedom for all. Learn more about #Juneteeth at https://hubs.ly/Q02CfRCz0

Veterns bring complex problem solving skills, the type of problems never solved by simple solutions or ideological frames. “Grit” and purpose….communication and shared understanding….due diligence and compromise are crucial elements currently missing necessary to facilitate congressional progresses. Country over party. Leadership matters. #congress #veterans #voting #democracy #house #senate #electveterans #polarizations

Today, we pause and remember how the WWII Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 impacted America. We remember the 2,400 service members and civilians who were killed. This day that President Franklin D. Roosevelt names the "Day of Infamy." when he called on Americans to get ready to fight a war. In 1941 the United States was still recovering from the great depression. The unemployment rate was 25%, bankruptcy was not uncommon, and the standard of living for most Americans was 60% lower than before the stock market crash of 1929. America had been avoiding entering the war in Europe. The surprise attack shook the nation, and when Germany and Italy declared war on the United States days later, America found itself in a global war. Sons, husbands, fathers, and sweethearts would join the armed forces. For the next four years, America would experience wage and price controls; shortages of food, fuel, and other strategic materials. American factories were retooled to produce goods to support the war effort and almost overnight. Departing soldiers created a need for 5 million women to entered the wartime workforce in factories and farms. In Delaware County, 35,000 neighbors worked at Sun Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company in Chester. They were a part of the most ambitious shipbuilding program in American history. They build and launch a ship in just 70 days. By the end of WWII Delco produced 318 vessels, including 288 oil tankers, 35 cargo ships, 35 barges, and eight military vessels. Many organizations honor our WWII veterans. A few include the Delaware County Veterans Memorial Newtown Square , savinghallowedground.org, Arlington Cemetery in Drexel Hill, EDEN CEMETERY in Darby. #Pearlharborremembranceday

Today we remember and honor those who served.⁠ 🇺🇸⁠ ⁠ To learn more about Memorial Day and how to properly honor those who have served, check out this article written for CUInsight.com by Anthony Hernandez from Defense Credit Union Council (DCUC), "Memorial Day Observations" here:

On Patriot Day, we remember and honor hard working Americans who lost their lives and the brave first responders who answered the call. The 9/11 attacks took nearly 3,000 lives that day and impacted thousands more. A nation forever changed. Today, and always, we remember our shared values of liberty and freedom, and our dedication to building a better future for all 💙 ~ #September11 #September11th #NeverForget #FlexibleStaffing #FlexibleStaffingServices #PatriotDay #Workforce #Staffing

The police force in the USA is an army. That's the army that the founding fathers of The United States of America tried to prevent with the Constitution. the 4th 5th and 2nd amendment exemplifies this fact. As President of Intensity Technologies my goal is to protect the citizens of the USA. #policy #policymaking #politics #entrepreneurs

If this moves you, even in the slightest, we’re somewhat alike! We all need to get involved and stay involved in local and state politics. Whose on and running for your local school board? What about town council and Mayor? If you don’t like their agenda or even lack thereof it’s not up to others to find a suitable person to run, rather it’s up to YOU. Imagine for a moment how you, another family member, neighbor, friend or coworker would do on the school board, town council, Mayor or city Ben serve as a local state representative? Remember, you don’t need political experience to run for a political position, in fact we have way TOO MUCH political experience in political positions. Do we agree?! If you plan on getting involved and helping your local and state situation between now and our national election in November, please share and always motivate others to get involved, as you lead the way! Do you know who your county Republican Chairman is? Find out and call them! Ask them where they need help and how you can help! On local office primary election day for local Republican offices here in New Hampshire, I’ll be standing outside with signs of those I feel are the most conservative with the best agenda for success. I’ll be doing the same in November, when we vote for all offices, including President! Do you know how you’re helping yet?! ANY amount of time is better than nothing! Let’s go!! #election2024 #republicans #libertarians #conservatives #constitution #usa #freedom #trump #trump2024 #america #gop #military #army #navy #marines #airforce #coastguard #vet #vets #veterans

This is part of the “long march through the institutions” strategy. We need to counter this if we want to preserve western civilization. https://lnkd.in/g5nvfScH
