Don't SAY anything, DO. Ensure, then show full Black representation on your leadership team + every level, and that Black talent is just as welcomed, hired, promoted, valued, championed, celebrated, compensated, bonused, rewarded and gets to thrive in your agency as much as white

Dear creative community, please do not send me another idea for a stunt to show that we support the African American community. Instead, hire more African Americans for the agency. Or help us evolve the diversity agenda here in my company (cause we need it). Actions, not ads. – at Miami, FL

Men of the ad industry who weren't at @3percentconf last week, you can still take these microactions to be our allies in changing our industry FAST to be one we'll all be a lot happier working in. Shoutout to @beckythehoff for these great directives all around the #3percentconf

"You don't get to name yourself an ally. You actually have to DO something to be an ally. Ally is not a noun. It's a verb." @Wade_Davis28 #3PercentConf

This is important ‼️ There is so much talk in the industry about authenticity and creating engaging brand moments, but not a lot of action. Pro tip: Hire, support and promote the people who know the landscape. The DIY method could leave you 🤡’d on the internet.
Why you should hire black women for social : You're looking at a group photo of GSDM.. the marketing agency that did the digital strategy for @PopeyesChicken. The girl circled is responsible for the tweet that set the brand on fire with over 3B impressions.

Announcing you’re an ally online is nice, but what if you took it a step further and became an ally IRL? fastcompany.com/90397620/how…

We've been telling the story about Black women getting paid 61 cents to the dollar for more years than I can remember. And I can simply use this day to further shout to the top of my voice that it is time to end the discrepancy and discrimination. Black women deserve equal pay.
