Our Personal and Professional Responsibility to Fight Hate

I've attempted several times in the past week to record this podcast. I didn't feel 100% about it because it's felt weird to simply discuss business and books as usual after seeing the events that happened in Charlottesville, VA. In the last week I’ve gone through a range of emotions: disbelief, frustration, anger, and now resolute. I am more determined than ever to fight hate and be a light.  Not only will I not tolerate the hate and divisiveness in our country but I will continue to shine by supporting initiatives, publications, organizations, and content that work to rid our country of this foolishness and highlight the power of justice and inclusion. Before you listen to this podcast, I hope we are aligned on these 2 things: 1. Hate has no place. 2. Hate is nothing new under the sun.  It's just been given a stronger voice by silence (i.e. tolerance) and emboldened by people like Donald Trump. Today I’m going to share a few of my thoughts on personal and professional responsibility here on the View112 podcast. 1. Speak Out 2. Educate Yourself 3. Allocate Resources
