Celebrating Diversity

Here's what you can do to recognize and honor the diversity:

  • Support diverse businesses that have been negatively impacted by the pandemic.
  • Consider visiting or using services from a diverse vendor to show your support for their business.
  • Host a multicultural movie night with your family. There are many great options available for great family time together.
  • Play music from around the world. Celebrate your friends, family, and colleagues by asking them to share examples of music from their own culture or heritage during your next virtual meeting, coffee chat, or happy hour.
  • Have a discussion with someone from another culture about their cultural values.
  • Explore local ethnic restaurants and try food from a different culture that you’ve never tasted before.
