 My name is Sherry Howard and I'm CEO and founder of Being Human which is a strategic consultancy and executive coaching firm. When I first heard about the racial equity alliance it was an approach and concept and what it was trying to get accomplished something that just spoke to the core of my being. My goal for REA as we kick off in 2022 is that the momentum continue, that there be significant rising to happen in the first year and that we're really able to galvanize a good amount of energy around breaking down systemic barriers and that others follow suit with funding resources and support to the programming that's been put together.
