The National Diversity Council recognizes Pride Day which commemorates the anniversary of the Stonewall riots and is dedicated to celebrating the beauty of LGBTQ+ #pride.

This month, I would like to recognize and celebrate the accomplishments and legacy of LGBTQ+ individuals throughout history and culture. I quote the words of Marsha P. Johnson, “No Pride for some of us, without liberation for all of us.” The intersectionality of the LGBTQ+ community weaves different cultures, backgrounds and identities that all showcase the beauty of pride. As we recognize the strides the LGBTQ+ community has made towards equity, we must also advocate for greater awareness, acceptance and implementation of inclusive policies. We must continue to uplift their stories all year round. Please join me in celebrating the resilience and empowerment of LGBTQ+ individuals as they continue to make strides in the fight for equity in our workplaces and communities.

This month, I would like to recognize and celebrate the accomplishments and legacy of Caribbean Americans throughout history and culture. I quote the words of Marcus Garvey, "A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots." Rooted in Caribbean American heritage is a rich melding of cultures, history and backgrounds. Recognizing the contributions of Caribbean Americans is crucial to social justice and human rights. By pioneering a new frontier for inclusion, Caribbean Americans have shown their strength to create, empower and uplift others in the face of adversity. In building on the momentum and success of Caribbean Americans, we must advocate for justice, address systemic racism and showcase how they have contributed to creating a better nation and society. We must continue to uplift their stories all year round. Please join me in celebrating the heritage and contributions of Caribbean Americans to our nation and world.
