Watch Today: The Hill’s Diversity & Inclusion Summit

Sponsored by International Franchise Association, National Association of Realtors, and Qualcomm View in Browser       The Hill's Diversity & Inclusion Summit Nearly 250 years after its founding, America is more diverse than ever before. Yet significant barriers to justice, equal opportunity and inclusion still exist for many Black, Hispanic, LGBTQ+ and minority Americans. What will it take for diversity, inclusion, and equity to become more than just buzzwords? How can we address the lack of diversity and create pathways to power at all levels of government? In business, how can we tackle the wealth gap and support minority entrepreneurs? As a society, how can we challenge and remedy long-held biases and bigotry? At this moment of national reflection, join The Hill for a conversation with changemakers and stakeholders to discuss the active steps that policymakers and citizens should take toward meaningful change.
