Week 3: January 17 - 21, 2022 - I Have A Dream, Share Your Story
MLK day is this week, which makes it a good time for reflecting on what this day signifies and our roles in promoting diversity and equity across our teams. We each bring our own experiences and backgrounds to our work and more than anything, celebrations like MLK day bring awareness to blind spots in experiences besides our own.
It also reminds us that discrimination and bias still exist. We are committed to understanding each of your experiences and want to provide a safe space to do that. MLK Day may bring up ideas or feedback that people may especially want to share now. Please share your story so we can get to know you a little better, it will remain private unless given permission by you. At the end of the survey you will find out what the small prize for submission of your story is. Link to Survey Link to “I Have a Dream” Speech |
