1. Observing Juneteenth with authenticity and respect.
How is your workplace observing Juneteenth (June 19) this year?
As USA Today notes, this year’s holiday should come into sharper focus on the heels of our ongoing racial reckoning—and it’s an ideal time for reflection on how well your organization is treating employees of color:
“In addition to celebrations, Juneteenth is also a time for reflection and conversation. You can listen to dialogue centered around race and equality and contribute to the conversation in a positive way. Supporting Black-owned businesses, listening to Black artists, reading books written by Black poets and authors, and donating to organizations are other ways to celebrate Juneteenth.”
