WHEN: Saturday, August 1, 2020, 9am (EDT) WHERE: All social media platforms that you use WHO: All who stand with the African American community against racism, discrimination, and injustice WHAT: Post your resume, curriculum vitae, video resume, portfolio, or all of the above online and on social media (first, remove your address, and create a new email account to track and record replies) WHY: Transparency, accountability, and redress with meaningful, measurable, and verifiable results Change is ComingIn the United States, and across the globe, companies, brands, politicians, celebrities, and neighbors have rallied, protested, and added their voices to the thundering heart-wrenching cry of long-suffering African Americans demanding justice, answers, and redress for longstanding racism against black and brown humans in the United States. Black squares were posted far and wide, and Black Lives Matter was etched on our streets and in our minds. Companies, brands, politicians, leaders, neighbors and social media influencers all promised that this time, change would come. They promised that this time, relief would come. This time all would stand in solidarity with the African American community, which has not only been most egregiously injured by systemic and pervasive racism in the United States, but has also until recently been entirely unaided in this fight. We ask the global community – that has pledged support for black lives with words – to demonstrate that their solidarity goes beyond hashtags, social media posts, and marches. We ask that you show your solidarity with deeds and actions, and not just words. What if more people in influential seats of power looked like me? Imagine a more equitable world. Imagine a world where African Americans didn’t have to die before the global community rallied to support and protect black lives. Saturday, August 1, 2020, we are pushing for true transparency, accountability, and redress---in meaningful, measurable, and verifiable ways. Saturday, August 1, 2020, beginning at 9am eastern, post your resume, curriculum vitae, video resume, portfolio, or all of the above online and on social media. [Be safe, be smart: first, remove your address, and use a newly created secured email account on your public posts.] When you see a resume you like, tag a company or hiring manager to let them know that you want to see more diverse candidates on staff in positions of leadership. Actively and affirmatively advocate for companies to add more black and brown individuals to positions of authority. We all benefit when businesses become more diverse and equitable. However, the intended goal is to create monumental and lasting change around targeted populations most vulnerable to racism and discrimination in American businesses: women and African Americans. Companies can participate by hiring more women and people of color to positions of leadership, and ensuring pay equity and fairness in hiring and promotions. If more women and African Americans held positions of leadership, would we have a civil rights crisis in America today? We cannot allow racism and discrimination to hide behind the excuse that companies and brands do not see qualified diverse candidates of color. We – women and black and brown communities – are talented, intelligent, law-abiding, skilled, and deserving of equity, justice, redress, and equality. We shall see where #BlackLivesMatter and who truly stands for women, diversity, justice, and equality: where we spend our money is an extension of what we value. If #BlackLivesMatter if diversity matters, and if women matter then you should hire more women and diverse candidates to positions of leadership. Step 2 [Future forecast]: only patronize businesses, companies, and brands that demonstrate that they support women and black and brown communities. Why would you patronize establishments that don’t share your values? We CAN end the practice of racism and discrimination forever. This is ENTIRELY up to you: how will you respond? What do YOU value?
