To help address racism and systemic injustice, Ascension has launched a justice-focused framework called ABIDE, built on the hallmarks of Appreciation – Belongingness – Inclusivity – Diversity – Equity. This effort encompasses a commitment to listen, pray, learn and act. Fostering a more inclusive culture and advocating for social justice can help provide more equitable employment opportunities while also helping to remedy healthcare disparities perpetuated by racism and systemic injustice.
Carlos Moreno spoke with ABIDE about the history of Greenwood and its significance during the civil rights movement both locally and nationally.
