Frazer Jones is proud to celebrate Black History Month.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We recognize that honoring Black History goes beyond the duration of February and that we should actively look to celebrate Black History, uplift the voices of our Black colleagues,<\/strong> and genuinely continue to uncover ways we can eradicate discrimination, unconscious or active, of any sort, during the recruitment, hiring and employment processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being aware of the fullness of our history allows us all to challenge ourselves on internal biases. Black History Month is a reminder to actively champion diversity; it\u2019s a chance for us to find more ways to commemorate an overshadowed history and overlooked voices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first of this four-part series celebrating Black History Month looks at resources that will promote a fuller understanding of Black History, see how to combat unconscious bias, and how we can support Black colleagues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Origins and Milestones<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The history of Black Americans and their myriad contributions is deeply ingrained into the roots of the country. Much of that same history has been under-recorded, undertaught, not celebrated, and has been subject to deliberate revisionism, appropriation, and erasure. We have compiled some resources sharing important milestones that we should all be aware of. Take a look below!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
