Page Conversation on How Business Can Address Racism and Mass Violence

These past weeks have been a brutal reminder of the work that still needs to be done to establish a more just and equitable society. Racially-motivated killings in Southern California and Buffalo, NY, highlight the deepening divisions across racial and ethnic lines.

As we near the two-year anniversary of the murder of George Floyd, communicators need to seriously consider what our role is in confronting the problem and dealing with its impact. What can you do for your employees when their communities are threatened? How do you respond if a racially-motivated attack happens near where your organization operates? How can businesses at large address the issue through real action?

On Monday, May 23, at 12:30 p.m. ET, Page is hosting an open forum for Page and Page Up members to discuss these issues. The session will be facilitated by Bradley Akubuiro of Bully Pulpit Interactive, and will be an open discussion among attendees. There will be no planned presentations— come prepared to participate in a candid, 60-minute discussion among your peers on how to confront these problems.
Page Conversations are virtual events that give Page and Page Up members a forum to discuss critical topics that are impacting their enterprises and the role of the CCO. If you have any questions, please contact JT Conway.
