Diversity, equity and inclusion
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.”
In 1776, the men who drafted these words in The United States Declaration of Independence did not believe them to be true for Black America. It would be almost 90 years and a civil war later, before African Americans would be granted basic human rights.
