This is hard, to be sure. A search for what I am not, isn’t useful. It encourages vanity and discourages personal accountability. This can result in some unhelpful substituons for real, long-term and proactive work. In my own experience that has looked like:- performative action,- prioritizing my own “brand” over the deeply personal and difficult exploration of my own role and my own privilege,- a search for the bad guy/actors which means adding to stereotyping, and- unhelpful binaries that enable notions like being “one of the good ones.” Important read.

I respect the work in this article! An interesting way to illustrate how white supremacy can show up in behaviours of white women, using archetypes to build our understanding. Also, on the necessity and yet insufficiency of current JEDI approaches:"Black women are in a bit of a conundrum. Racism isn’t going away anytime soon, and our coping strategies won’t stop the weathering. For the foreseeable future, we will continue to get sicker and die sooner than we should. This is a sobering reality. But at the very least, while we still have breath, Black women should be afforded spaces to breathe."Beyond Karen: White Woman Archetypes in the Third Sector by Dr. Yanique Redwood https://lnkd.in/ehEPSRMz

A lot of people think that DEI in the workplace is charitable work or it's for ticking off certain boxes, but it really isn't!Implementing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion entails examining business practices to create an inclusive work environment. It's not only great for the success of your employees but also for the growth of your business across the board.More on this here: https://bit.ly/41TNMOd #Diversity #Business #Work #DEI

Tbh the “business case” for diversity, equity and inclusion never really sat well with me.I touted it like many other #DEI practitioners, but it was always unsettling to me to encourage companies to make more money via #DEI strategic plans, initiatives, programs etc. when those efforts were led by folks from traditionally underrepresented and marginalized communities who weren’t compensated adequately or at all for their efforts.This thoughtful article by Amira Barger, MBA,CVA,CFRE discusses other problematic aspects of the business case for DEI, including reinforcing anti-Black sentiment.“Championing only the business case for DEI is a timid and disingenuous demand, and little actual progress will be won. In fact, research outlines the negative impacts on people and organizations when diversity is promoted for the purpose of achieving revenue outcomes. According to a Forbes article, “New research reveals that linking diversity to corporate profits may be a turnoff for the underrepresented individuals organizations are seeking to attract. In fact, the use of the business case to justify diversity can result in underrepresented groups anticipating less belonging to organizations, which, in turn, makes them ultimately less likely to want to join the organization.”#dei

💡Did you know thatfor every 100 men promoted from entry-level to manager, only 87 women are promoted? This phenomenon, known as the"broken rung,"represents one of the greatest obstacles women face on their journey to senior leadership positions.Black professionals face a "double broken rung" which is the inability to move from entry-level to manager, and manager to executive level.As your nextMs. Corporate America, I am committed to addressing and repairing the broken rung issue. I believe that every woman deserves equal opportunities for career growth and advancement. By focusing on fixing the broken rung, we can create a more equitable and inclusive corporate environment where women can thrive and excel.I'm currentlyleading in thePeople's Choicecategoryfor the Ms. Corporate America competition!

Thanks to Canvas Rebel for the recent interview! Excerpts from the feature: 🔹 What’s been the most meaningful project you’ve worked on?👣 (Un)Known Project, which I co-lead with my friend and IDEAS xLab Chief Creative Officer Hannah Drake, is really meaningful to me. I believe in racial equity and justice, and this project is part of how I can support achieving that and working toward a multiracial democracy….🔹 Is there a particular goal or mission driving your creative journey?💫 I’ve long believed that being visible can shift culture, and that sharing our stories can be the catalyst that changes how people see and move through the world. I’m using my platform as a queer changemaker, public speaker and artist to launch an uncovering movement, by inviting you to embark on a daring journey with me….🔹 We often hear about learning lessons – but just as important is unlearning lessons. Have you ever had to unlearn a lesson?💡 I had to unlearn that there was only one way to be a man, and to be a professional.Until I was 18, I lived on Lookout Mountain, in the Chattanooga, TN area. I’m the oldest of five kids and grew up in a conservative religious bubble.A community where boys didn’t take ballet (because you’d be considered gay) and a place where being gay was a choice and a sin. My understanding of the world was shaped by the idea that a 9-5 job was the goal and that artists couldn’t make a living on their art (whatever that art may be)….Delve into the full conversation ⬇️Josh Miller Ventures IDEAS xLab Open Society Foundations Mellon Foundation Ford Foundation #interview #lessonslearned #media #IDEASxLab #UnKnownProject #JoshMillerVentures #ceo #wednesdaywisdom #leadership #lgbtq #queer #queerleadership #inclusionmatters #uncovering #UncoveringYourValue #RacialEquity #Justice

I've always sought opportunities to grow both personally and professionally. One experience stands out among the rest, teaching me invaluable lessons in organization and adaptability.Last summer, I volunteered to coordinate a local fundraising event for a women's group. Little did I know, this endeavor would be a crash course in multitasking, problem-solving, and, most importantly, the art of organization.From coordinating with vendors to managing volunteer schedules and handling unexpected challenges, every moment was a test of my ability to stay organized amidst chaos. One instance, in particular, taught me the importance of adaptability. On the day of the event, we faced a sudden shortage of volunteers. Instead of panicking, I quickly reassessed our needs, rearranged tasks, and rallied the team to ensure everything ran smoothly.Through this experience, I honed my skills in time management, communication, and strategic planning. I learned that organization isn't just about color-coded calendars and to-do lists; it's about remaining calm under pressure, thinking on your feet, and empowering others to work towards a common goal.As a young feminist advocate, this experience has been transformative. It's shown me that effective organization is not just a personal skill—it's a tool for driving change and making a tangible impact in the community. Whether it's advocating for women's rights or navigating the world of commerce, the ability to organize, adapt, and lead is invaluable.I'm grateful for every challenge and triumph that shaped me during this event. It has prepared me to take on new challenges with confidence, knowing that I have the skills to organize, inspire, and make a difference. Here's to embracing chaos and turning it into something truly remarkable! 💪🌟 #OrganizationalSkills #FeministAdvocate #CommerceGraduate #EmpoweredByChaos
