During Black History Month and every month, we are invited to learn more about and celebrate the fullness of Black experiences — our humanity, achievements, struggles, and triumphs. And we are reminded daily of the struggle we still face with racial injustice, violence, economic and social challenges, and structural oppression. We look through the pages of history to remind us of the resilience, wisdom, and strength of many, and to fuel our hopes for our path ahead.
Black History Month is also a great time to come together with one another in a spirit of support and a focus on finding resolutions together. The mediator's code of ethics was founded on the principle of self-determination - that each individual has the opportunity to determine their own outcome and the freedom to have all parties find solutions that satisfy all interests. This month and always, let us focus on our similarities and look to find peaceful paths to overcoming our differences.
