When trying to overcome a challenge like this pandemic. There are many tests to our community along the way. One of them is not allowing any group to be singled out and persecuted. #StopAsianHate #unjudgesomeone
Meet one of our most wonderful editions. @katyjon has been a resource in the library for over a decade and continues to help us drive positive change. #unjudgesomeone #humanlibrary #book #librarian #champion humanlibrary.org/we-all-need-to…
Many years ago @Heineken_UK invited us to publish our books for their staff across the UK. Since then we have been invited by @TescoBankNews, @PremierFoodsPLC, @WoodMackenzie, @smurfitkappa, @WithersLLP, @GSK and many more. Thank you to the friends of the Human Library.
"Diversity & inclusion efforts struggle because they often attempt to find a one-size-fits-all solution to eliminating bias...there is no effective one-size-fits-all solution because we all come with different backstories and different views of the world." forbes.com/sites/kimelses…
Want to thank our friends from @Heineken_UK for the invitation to publish our books virtually. We look forward to more courageous conversations. #unjudgesomeone #heinekenuk #humanlibrary
