DEI Chair Makes Pitch

 

 

Pam Baxter, at end of table, chats before her presentation at Thursday's meeting. (Meanwhile Steve Ames, on right, looks skeptically at photographer.) Pam heads the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Committee for the new Central New York Rotary District, of which we are part.

DEI is "about relationships," she said, noting the high prevalence of Americans laboring under some form of disability. "As human beings," she said, "don't we all just want to be appreciated, and recognized?" We may need to watch out for "ableism," and "unlearn behaviors that hinder your own growth as a person."
