Ascend Atlanta and Charlotte Chapters:

ACT Initiative – Solidarity Against Bias

Event Details:

Date: Wednesday, July 29th

Time: 8:30 AM - 10:00 AM (ET)

Virtual Zoom Meeting

Description:

Ascend stands in solidarity against racism and violence. With the recent tragic events and acts of bias and violence against our Black communities, it has continued to remind us of the racism, institutional bias, and prejudice that is still prevalent in America. The Ascend Atlanta and Charlotte Chapters of the Southeast region are collaborating together to host one of a multi-part series to discuss this critical topic. We intend to create a safe space to discuss race relations and inequalities that impact us and the workplace and brainstorm the role that we and our organizations can play to Promote Inclusion, Raise Awareness, Denounce Bias, Support Communities and Give Donations.
