Description

Juneteenth is a day to celebrate, but it's also a day to reflect upon the hardships that African Americans endured and the forces that continue to undermine the freedoms of Black Americans. One of the places that these forces are most clear is in the U.S. financial system, in which Black Americans and other people of color have been historically underrepresented. On this episode, we invite you to join us in this reflection as we hear from FINRA’s Vice President of Talent Acquisition and Chief Diversity Officer Audria Lee and from Ritta McLaughlin, Director of Community Outreach, about how FINRA has been working to build equitable solutions and a better future within our organization, our communities and the financial industry. How are we doing? Take the FINRA Unscripted survey today. Resources mentioned in this episode:2021 Diversity, Equity & Inclusion ReportDissertation Completion Fellowship ProgramBoard of Governor’s Diversity StatementRacial Justice Task Force
