The Black community shares a great pride and love for our culture. Yet, we’re not met with that same love and appreciation from society. Unfortunately, the Black community is not the only group facing discrimination and biases in this country. Today, we’re joined by execs from the LatinX and AAPI communities. We discuss their pride in their heritage, the discrimination they face, and how we can all come together to advance our efforts and improve our society.

Tidbit of the day:

“Our uniqueness, our individuality, and our life experience molds us into fascinatingbeings.

I hope we can embrace that. I pray we may all challenge ourselves to delve into

We are all in this life together.”
