I’m BLACK, how can I help?
I’m not BLACK, how can I help?
I must confess that over the last few years I have
been gravely disappointed with the
white moderate
who is more devoted to
"order" than to justice
who prefers a
negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive
peace which is the presence of justice
"I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods
of direct action;"
who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable
for another man's freedom;
who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the
Negro to wait until a "more convenient season.”
Martin Luther King Letter from a Birmingham Jail
Diversity
I feel like a bean
The industry has attempted to embrace diversity
I’m not checkbox filling
I don’t want your diversity
Where I come from
diversity = integration?
Let’s try a new word
Inclusion
inclusion |inˈklo͞oZHən| noun
1 the action or state of including or of being included within a group or structure
We want to belong
