Gender Equality Month: Reflecting On Humanity

March is not just Women’s History Month, but also Gender Equality Month! As we celebrate Gender Equality Month, Wil Johnson reminds us that it's important to reflect on what it truly means to embrace our humanity. Gender equality is not just about ensuring equal access to opportunities and resources, but also about removing barriers that hinder access for various groups or individuals. To truly promote equality, we must address gender discrimination, which occurs when a person or group of people are denied access or their voices are marginalized based solely on their gender identity. In this blog, Wil explores how gender inequality shows up in the classroom, workspaces, and interpersonal relationships, and provides actionable steps we can take to promote equality regardless of gender identity. Ultimately, embracing humanity means creating spaces of equality where each person has access to opportunity. By reflecting on our own biases and taking actionable steps to promote gender equality, we can all work towards a more just and equitable society.
