Message from the FEW PRESIDENT
The Black Family: Representation, Identity, and Diversity
As I reflect on the meaning behind the 2021 Black History Month theme "The Black Family: Representation, Identity, and Diversity," I graciously think about the importance of knowing who you are and how you identify yourself to fit into this world. It is a fact that there is importance in how we define ourselves and what we represent for the greater good of humanity. Studies have shown that there is absolute strength in diversity. FEW is an organization that explores all aspects of diversity and this month we highlight and celebrate the contribution of the Black family; those who advance our cause and join us in working for the advancement of women the government. There is no doubt that Black people have contributed in numerous advancements in our society and made several cracks in the glass ceiling. Our nation is better because of their inclusion, representation and contributions.
