June is a powerful month, marked by varied significant celebrations: Juneteenth, commemorating when the news of the end of slavery reached the remaining enslaved Black people in the US, and Pride Month, honoring the LGBTQIA+ fight for equality. At CHALICE Premium, these celebrations are deeply intertwined. We celebrate the spirit of these moments – the resilience of Black Americans and the fight for LGBTQIA+ equality – not just in June, but throughout the year. Intersectionality, a framework developed by Black feminist scholars like Patricia Hill Collins, reminds us that social identities like race, gender, and sexual orientation overlap. Black LGBTQIA+ individuals face unique challenges navigating a world with prejudice based on both race and sexual orientation. The iconic rainbow Pride flag, while powerful, doesn't fully encompass this complexity. #Juneteenth #PrideMonth #BlackPride #CHALICEPremium #Intersectionality #CelebrateDiversity

In honor of Black History Month, I’ll reshare a powerful reflection that I saw on Instagram by The PR Girl Manifesto. It prompts us to deeply consider whether our organizations are authentically fostering inclusion and equity within. It's more than just acknowledging the past; it's about actively shaping the future and dismantling the systemic racism woven into our society. Let's use this reminder to commit to actions that create more equitable and inclusive organizations. Use this as an opportunity for introspection and action, committing ourselves to creating workplaces where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered to thrive. Together, let's build a more equitable and inclusive future. #BlackHistory #Inclusion #Equity #BlackHistory365

Happy Juneteenth! 🖤 Today, we celebrate the liberation of Black people in America, recognizing the immense struggle and triumph that this day symbolizes. As we reflect on this historic milestone, it's crucial to remember that Queer and trans liberation is inseparable from Black liberation. ✊🏽 As a nurse, I see firsthand how the intersections of race, gender, and sexuality impact health outcomes. Our healthcare system still grapples with systemic racism that affects the quality of care our Black and Queer communities receive. It's not enough to just acknowledge this – we must actively work towards change, advocating for equality and justice within our profession. ✨Let's celebrate Juneteenth by✨: 🖤 Educating ourselves and our peers about the unique challenges faced by Black and Queer individuals. 🖤 Advocating for policies that promote equitable healthcare access and outcomes. 🖤Holding ourselves and each other accountable to create a more inclusive and supportive environment. #Juneteenth #BlackLiberation #QueerLiberation #TransLiberation #HealthcareEquity #NursesForChange #Pridemonth #Pride

💭 I’m not a fan of one day/week/month “celebrations” of black peoples, women and disabled people! We don’t exist for that period only! ✊🏾 If you want to celebrate Black History, then have year long conversation about how to eradicate racism & what can be done to make sustainable and equitable changes. 💁🏾♀️ If you want to celebrate Womens Day, then have year long conversations about women, their challenges and what can be done to make long lasting impactful change. 🦽If you want to celebrate Disability Week, then have year long conversations about how to remove the stigma and make life easier for disabled people. 👉🏾 We are past performative gestures and intentions, it’s time for something tangible, equitable and long lasting. #Inclusion #TrueAllyship #BreakTheStigma #RealAction #Equity

Former SVP, Head of Sustainability, Safety, Health and Environment at Bayer | Senior advisor Sustainability&ESG | Advancing Human Rights in the Supply Chain | Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Advocate
🗓️ June is one of my favourite months of the year 6️⃣ 🌈 While I read posts celebrating Pride Month, I realize is also the 13th anniversary of the Ruggie’s “Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. “🔖 The intersection of both occasions is clear: business have a vital role towards the inclusion of LGBTQIA+ people. And businesses are built by the people! As I reflect on my journey towards an LGBTQIA+ ally, here are some steps I have taken: ➡️ I took time to educate myself on language use or historical events such as the Stonewall riots. ➡️ I tried to ask and listen before stating. Because only members of the community can say what feels right - or wrong. ➡️ I worked to challenge and unlearn the biases ingrained in my upbringing. ➡️ I started to speak out against exclusive statements or microagressions. Today beyond my corporate role, I continue on my learning journey. 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈Because the basics are in the Human Rights Declaration: all human beings are equal. #pridemonth #humanrights

President at Virtual Guardians
3wI purchased Mailchimp for my small company on June 17th. Since then, they have missed the training meeting because of a glitch and now have me on a Free account which has ZERO access to support even though I paid. They sent me a link and promise 24 hour response. We'll see.
