Yesterday a jr. employee reached out to me to give me some negative feedback about a decision I made. Inside I was celebrating. When a jr. employee feels psychologically safe enough to give the CEO negative feedback, you know you've built a healthy culture.

On this day, our sense of security was shaken as the Latinx #LGBTQ community at Pulse was targeted by hate and gun violence. We remember and honor their lives. Fast forward 4 years: We still await for #guncontrol and Trump is dismantling transgender health care protections. – at New York, USA

As millions of people across the country take to the streets and raise their voices in response to the killing of George Floyd and the ongoing problem of unequal justice, I’ve heard many ask how we can sustain momentum to bring about real change.

Minneapolis is grieving for a reason. To paraphrase Dr. King, the negative peace which is the absence of tension is no substitute for the positive peace which is the presence of justice. Justice is how we heal.
