Designing a Racially Equitable Organization
As society reckons with the hard conversations about racial equity and justice that have been brought to the forefront by the killings of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor and the Black Lives Matter movement, companies are grappling with how best to incorporate calls for action and lessons learned into their operations.
Many solutions have taken a high-level, top-down approach and can seem like a “quick fix”. Through this discussion, we highlight organizations that have designed missions and operations with principles of racial and economic justice at the forefront.
The conversation will showcase tangible, effective bottom-up practices to allow for a sustainable commitment to racial justice.
