Chicago, IL, November 07, 2022 --(PR.com)-- Wendy Lewis and the team at Wendy Lewis, LLC are taking their advocacy for diversity, equity and inclusion a notch higher with the launch of AllySHIFT® Episode 1 on Friday November 11, 2022, from 8:30AM to 5:30PM and Saturday November 12, 2022 at the "Thanks a Million, Buck" Hall of Fame Gala at the Negro League Baseball Museum (NLBM), 1616 East 18th Street, Kansas City, Missouri.

“AllySHIFT® is a progressive pathway from Moments to Movements. It is a seismic mindset shift to become more activist than advocate for the purpose of achieving measurable results for outcomes for cultural transformation and sustainable equity. We are thrilled to be in Kansas City at this most amazing time to launch AllySHIFT® Episode 1 and participate in the recognition and celebration of the life and legacy of Buck O’Neil at NLBM. Buck, Bob Kendricks, President of the NLBM and the NLBM Organization truly exemplify the spirt of being an ally,” said Wendy Lewis, CEO of Wendy Lewis, LLC.

The conversations surrounding diversity, equity and inclusion have become louder as individuals and organizations seek their purpose, promotion, and adoption of social change and equity. Consequently, Wendy Lewis, LLC aims to further the “DEI” practice, and address it from different angles with the launch of AllySHIFT®.

AllySHIFT® has been created as a platform for “everyone who supports leveling upwards and for those who aspire to stand straight in crooked rooms.” AllySHIFT® Episode 1 will feature a live virtual fire-side chat with Nikole Hannah-Jones the Pulitzer Prize-winning creator of The 1619 Project, staff writer at The New York Times Magazine, Knight Chair of Race and Journalism at Howard University, and co-founder of the Ida B. Wells Society for Investigative Reporting. Ms. Hannah-Jones will share her wealth of knowledge and experience with guests and participants. Other speakers include subject matter experts and influencers who will address matters related to Economics, Education and Environment. The packed event will also include the fun and festivities of the "Thanks a Million, Buck” Hall of Fame Gala on November 12, honoring the legend’s induction into the National Baseball League’s Hall of Fame, 16 years after missing by one vote.
