This Black History Month, we reflect on the strategy work that our team does through our partnership with the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture —much of which centers around expanding access. To date, more than half a million pages of records have been transcribed.

Whether quietly spearheading some of the world's most groundbreaking scientific and medical research or not-so-quietly leading revolutions on the battlefield, our history is ripe with stories of ferocious, adventurous, enlightened, and persistent women. Future Sheroes. Thought Leaders. Revolutionaries. Game-Changers. Gabriela Mistral.

Many aren’t familiar with the roots and history of the first Earth Day that took place in 1970. The roots of Earth Day clearly weren’t in corporate greenwashing or a simple celebration of the place we call home. This year marks 51 years of Earth Day and one thing is for sure, our collective home needs us now more than ever before.

The takeover by the Taliban in Afghanistan earlier this year instantly sent the future of girls and women in that country into chaos. The world has been through a lot in the last several years. From the elite to the grassroots, gaps between women and men, girls and boys are set to widen. Credit: GOLEES.

This post by Jackie Peterson was so impactful I asked to repost if from her blog : I’ve been thinking about what to say, where to start. Like most Black folks, I’m exhausted. Every one of my joyful plans (family vacations, birthday celebrations, professional conferences) has been cancelled, postponed or moved to a virtual meeting.

June is the month we celebrate Pride, but it does seem like the only month out of the year that brands are actually OK with engaging with the LGBTQIA+ community to promote their products or services. This is a serious problem we need to work out, and it won’t be done with a blog post. And dang, y’all.

Hearing Van speak was probably one of the first moments I felt hope again for our future, and energized to make the world a better place. To start off, I asked Van to talk about the Ella Baker Center's Reclaim the Future program and how Oakland could become a model green city. Our question is, will this green wave lift all boats?
