Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Justice

---

"Diversity asks, ‘Who’s in the room?’

Equity responds, ‘ Who is trying to get in the room but can’t? Whose presence in the room is under constant erasure?’

Inclusion asks, ‘Have everyone’s ideas been heard?’

Justice responds, ‘Whose ideas won’t be taken as seriously because they aren’t in the majority?’

Diversity asks, ‘How many more of [pick any minoritized identity group] do we have this year than last?’

Equity responds, ‘What conditions have we created that maintain certain groups as the perpetual majority here?’

Inclusion asks, ‘Is this environment safe for everyone to feel they belong?’

Justice challenges, ‘Whose safety is being sacrificed and minimised to allow others to be comfortable maintaining dehumanising views?’
