This Tuesday, I was very fortunate to participate in an awareness, remembrance, and action event for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women’s (MMIW) Day, jointly hosted by WE Lead (Women in Energy Leading) and Native ONE Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) at ONE Gas.The event was led by James Beard Award semifinalist chef Jacque Siegfried, who highlighted the significance of MMIW Day through Native American ingredients, storytelling, personal experiences, and food. As a gay man, I’m especially grateful for the strong women in my life: my grandmother, mother, sisters, mentors, colleagues, and friends, who helped shape my values from an early age. They taught me the importance of respecting, supporting, protecting, and empowering the women around us. I’m grateful to work alongside incredible women every day and to be part of a company culture that encourages Inclusion & Diversity through conversations, education, and community. Let’s continue to listen, learn, advocate, and stand together in support of Indigenous women and communities 🤍 hashtag#MMIW hashtag#InclusionAndDiversity hashtag#WomenInLeadership hashtag#EmployeeResourceGroups
