Developed Catherine Parr for a project at Cornerstone. #cornerstoneartcentre In common parlance, the wives of Henry VIII were the six #queensconsort of King #HenryVIIIofEngland between 1509 and his death in 1547. In legal terms, Henry had only three wives, because three of his marriages were annulled by the #ChurchofEngland. However, he was never granted an annulment by the #Pope, as he desired, for #CatherineofAragon, his first wife.# Annulments declare that a true marriage never took place, unlike a divorce, in which a married couple end their union.Along with his six wives, Henry took several #mistresses. #WivesofHenryVIIIofEngland #16thcenturywomen, married to the #TudorKingHenryVIII during his reign (1509−1547). #CulturaldepictionsofthewivesofHenryVIII‎ #AnneBoleyn‎ #AnneofCleves‎ #CatherineofAragon‎ #CatherineParr‎ #CatherineHoward‎ #HenryVIII #CatherineParr #paranormal #strange #limbo #didcotwriter #cornerstoneartscentre Love to relook at history through a new lens. In this case a gender fluid lens. WHAT would Catherine Parr have to say about Henry VIII? We don't know but we can have fun pretending. Who were his wives? What did he achieve? Why did he like tennis and bowling? Why did he shut monasteries? What was he really like according to one of his wives? #dramaeducation #theatreeducation #history #history #lgbtq+ https://lnkd.in/dGNw4uxF

Today we commemorate Juneteenth, a day of profound significance in American history. At Dexter & Company, we celebrate and reflect on this day of freedom and equality for all. #Juneteenth #DexterandCompany #DexterInsurance #DallasInsurance

#Juneteenth marks the end of slavery in the United States, commemorating the emancipation of the last enslaved people in Galveston, Texas, on June 19, 1865. This historic day serves as a powerful reminder of the resilience and strength of my ancestors, whose perseverance and courage paved the way for future generations. As a Southern Black woman from Houston Texas, I am deeply proud of my heritage, which profoundly influences my identity and values. The legacy of my ancestors is a constant source of inspiration, motivating me to honor their sacrifices and contributions through my work and everyday actions. Understanding the depth of my roots instills in me a sense of responsibility to continue their legacy of resilience and resistance. Their stories of struggle and triumph shape my worldview and fuel my passion for justice and equality. From the plantations of the South to the struggles of the Civil Rights Movement, their journey is intertwined with the broader narrative of American #History—a narrative of resilience in the face of adversity, and triumph against all odds. This profound connection to my heritage drives me to uplift and empower others within my community, ensuring that their voices are heard and their stories are celebrated. It inspires me to advocate for systemic change and to fight against injustices that continue to impact marginalized communities today. In celebrating Juneteenth, we honor not only the end of slavery but also the ongoing struggle for true freedom and equality for all. Together, we continue the legacy of resilience and resistance, forging a path towards a future where justice and opportunity are accessible to every person, regardless of race or background.

As well as being St Valentines day today is also Ash Wednesday, marking the beginning of Lent for many Christians. For me, as a Catholic, this period holds deep significance in the preparation for Easter, the most important celebration in my faith. This time of reflection, and the visible mark on my forehead, makes me consider how our individual beliefs, cultures, and traditions shape who we are. These elements aren't separate from our work lives – they influence our perspectives, values, and the ways we connect with others. It's so important year round to acknowledge and celebrate the diverse identities that enrich our workplaces. The International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness (IAPB) communications team alone is made up of many different faiths, traditions and cultures, which as a team we try to mark, celebrate and educate each other on Fridays. It's in understanding and respecting the things that make us unique that we create truly inclusive environments. Whether you observe Ash Wednesday and Lent, or one of the other religious festivals or traditions that take place at this time of year, or celebrate your individuality in other ways, it is so important to honour the aspects of our lives that bring us meaning and inspire us to be our best selves, both at work and beyond. #AshWednesday #Faith #Culture #Diversity #Inclusion #WorkplaceCommunity

February is Black History Month and Black disabled history is an aspect of Black history. Check out this great article from our friends at The Arc: https://lnkd.in/gu7YPEd7

The truth about Black fatherhood.   It’s time to end the stereotype that Black men aren’t active fathers. The truth: many Black men are consistently in their children’s lives.   #communityfridays #fatherhood #marcelclarke #deathcare #deathcareprofessionals #deathcareindustryexpert

I can't say it any better. And I love that Ophelia tied it back to tactics many of us employ on a daily basis. #antiracism From Ophelia M. Byers, DNP, APRN, NEA-BC, CPXP, CDE®, ELI-MP, ACC about Paul Ladipo's recent post: If we are truly committed to improvement, truly about a growth mindset, then we have to be willing to actively engage in: ✅ problem identification, and ✅ root-cause analysis — the layers of problems that belie the initially identified issue: you know, “the drill-down.” Those are two cornerstones of quality assurance and performance improvement; and anti-racism (and DEIBJ) should be QAPI work, as well.

As a white person, anti-racist efforts can make me uncomfortable. But, I think it’s my responsibility to sit with that discomfort and exam it. Often, I’m afraid of losing something I’m comfortable with (usually my privilege). And, frankly, that is what I want. Anti-racist efforts isn’t about taking away anything from me or other white people. It is about ensuring we don’t have an unfair advantage. I recently completed a one-way interview. I have mixed feelings about this because some studies have shown one-way interviews are more likely to weed out people in the global majority. I’m white. I worry for talented people who don’t happen to be white who complete these types of interviews. They deserve a fair shot free from bias. Anti-racist efforts could focus on ways to improve the interview process to limit the potential for bias to affect hiring. (Or so many other things!)
