The 2024 DEI Empowerment Conference will be held virtually over Zoom Wednesday June 5, Thursday June 6, Tuesday June 11 and Wednesday June 12.
(This will download a file in your browser. Open and save to add it to your Outlook.)
The goal of the conference is to help state government build more just systems, and foster a culture of inclusion and belonging with our state workforce. Sessions will highlight the lived experience of historically marginalized groups and ideas for creating inclusive Washington communities and workplaces.
Four sessions will be presented each day. Daily sessions will include a keynote (two hours) and three additional sessions (90 minutes each.)
The conference dates have been thoughtfully chosen not to overlap with important state Business Resource Group annual events. We encourage team members to attend virtual and in-person events being planned by WIN, BUILD, and RAIN during the month of June. We are excited to partner with our BRG community!
Attendance is limited to state government workers and invited community members. While DEI practitioners and agency leadership will find the conference relevant to their work, all state employed workers have the power to promote diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging in their workplaces. We encourage you to block time on your calendar to attend the live sessions. While we strive to provide accessible solutions like recorded sessions for later playback, some sessions may only be available live.
We will also have in-person watch events in Olympia and Spokane that will welcome state employees to gather in-person to watch our virtual sessions. More details will be available closer to the time.
Check with your agency leaders about workforce planning for the scheduled conference dates and how you can work together so you have time to attend.
In our leadership roles we can support equity work by removing barriers to DEI learning and activities. Here are 5 ways you can help:
Look for ways you can adjust team schedules and workloads to allow each team member to attend at least one session of the conference.
Cancel or reschedule conflicting meetings.
Use your current communication tools to have agency heads encourage employees to attend.
Plan agency-specific reflection sessions for team members to discuss their key take-aways and “aha” moments from the conference sessions.
Have leaders register for several event sessions and share leaders’ schedule with teams to model attendance and to show leadership’s commitment to equity and learning.
Do you have lived experience as a member of a historically marginalized group, or other expertise in equity work and want to share your knowledge and experience with state employees at the DEI Empowerment Conference? See our website on how to submit your speaker proposal.
See the conference website at ofm.wa.gov/deiconference
If you have questions, feel free to contact us at WAStateEmployeeDEIConference@ofm.wa.gov.
Registration will open May 1, 2024. Admission is free and open to all employees of Washington state agencies, boards, and commissions.
We look forward to seeing you in June!

The pandemic required the US to recognize there is a divide between those who have access to technology, devices, and feel confident using them, and those who do not enjoy the same access or support. And that inequity exists for many reasons.
This invitation is extended to WIN members to co-create a survey that reflects the Digital Equity experience of our immigrant community.
BUILD cordially invites and welcomes you to join us as we celebrate and recognize African Americans' historical contributions, culture, and great achievements during the annual observance of Black History Month.
BUILD's February General Membership Meeting will be replaced with our main celebration event, which will be a hybrid in-person and virtual event:
Friday, February 23, 2024, from 1:30 pm to 5 pm

The Washington Immigrant Network (WIN) and the Hawaiians, Asians, and Pacific Islanders Promoting an Empowerment Network (HAPPEN) Business Resource Groups acknowledge that distressing global events are hurting state employees with familial, cultural, or ethnic ties to the communities involved, as well as employees who are watching the events unfold today. We know seeing consistent updates and images in the news can be traumatizing and triggering. As BRGs, we recognize that it is our responsibility to support our members and allies, particularly when events that target our communities occur.
In partnership with the Office of Equity and the Employee Assistance Program (EAP), WIN & HAPPEN will be hosting a Community Solidarity Gathering on February 7th to create a brave space for state employees who have been impacted by islamophobia, antisemitism, and xenophobia to share their experiences, and to acknowledge those that have been experiencing this in silence. We seek to hold space for state employees who feel like they are going through this alone and bring our communities together to support one another.
This event is open to all state employees and BRG members. We encourage you to join us as we support our communities and bring awareness to how current global events impact state employees.

Hello State Book Club! As we close on our first book, So you want to talk about race, by Ijeoma Oluo, we are excited to look ahead at what we’d like to read next. There are so many amazing books out there, I appreciate those who took the time to reply to the request for recommendations. We’re sticking with themes around equity, you’ll see the choices reflect that.
I’m recommending you open both this email and the survey as you make your decisions. We’ll use this vote to select the 2nd round of the book club, which we anticipate starting in February.
The survey is open through 1/5/24

Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents is a nonfiction book by the American journalist Isabel Wilkerson, published in August 2020 by Random House. The book describes racism in the United States as an aspect of a caste system – a society-wide system of social stratification characterized by notions such as hierarchy, inclusion and exclusion, and purity. Wilkerson does so by comparing aspects of the experience of American people of color to the caste systems of India and Nazi Germany, and she explores the impact of caste on societies shaped by them, and their people.
Crying in H Mart: Michelle Zauner tells of growing up one of the few Asian American kids at her school in Eugene, Oregon; of struggling with her mother’s particular, high expectations of her; of a painful adolescence; of treasured months spent in her grandmother’s tiny apartment in Seoul, where she and her mother would bond, late at night, over heaping plates of food.
How to be an antiracist: Ibram X. Kendi's concept of antiracism reenergizes and reshapes the conversation about racial justice in America--but even more fundamentally, points us toward liberating new ways of thinking about ourselves and each other. Instead of working with the policies and system we have in place, Kendi asks us to think about what an antiracist society might look like, and how we can play an active role in building it.
Permission to Come Home: Jenny T. Wang, PhD: Permission to Come Home takes Asian Americans on an empowering journey toward reclaiming their mental health. Weaving her personal narrative as a Taiwanese American together with her insights as a clinician and evidence-based tools, Dr. Jenny T. Wang explores a range of life areas that call for attention, offering readers the permission to question, feel, rage, say no, take up space, choose, play, fail, and grieve. Above all, she offers permission to return closer to home, a place of acceptance, belonging, healing, and freedom. For Asian Americans and Diaspora, this book is a necessary road map for the journey to wholeness.
Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America: Ibram X. Kendi In this deeply researched and fast-moving narrative, Kendi chronicles the entire story of anti-black racist ideas and their staggering power over the course of American history. He uses the life stories of five major American intellectuals to drive this history: Puritan minister Cotton Mather, Thomas Jefferson, abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison, W.E.B. Du Bois, and legendary activist Angela Davis.
The Art of Being Normal: Lisa Williamson an uplifting story about two teenagers set in the modern day in the United Kingdom. The author was inspired to write this novel after working in England's national health service, in a department dedicated to helping teens who are questioning their gender identity.
This novel, which won awards in the UK, is a first-person narrative about two transgender students, and is ideal for cisgender (cis) readers—people who identify with the gender assigned to them at birth—to learn more about gender identity and what it means to be transgender.
The Color of Law: To scholars and social critics, the racial segregation of our neighborhoods has long been viewed as a manifestation of unscrupulous real estate agents, unethical mortgage lenders, and exclusionary covenants working outside the law. This is what is commonly known as “de facto segregation,” practices that were the outcome of private activity, not law or explicit public policy. Yet, as Rothstein breaks down in case after case, private activity could not have imposed segregation without explicit government policies (de jure segregation) designed to ensure the separation of African Americans from whites. Richard Rothstein
The death and life of Aida Hernandez: Taking us into detention centers, immigration courts, and the inner lives of Aida and other daring characters, The Death and Life of Aida Hernandez reveals the human consequences of militarizing what was once a more forgiving border. With emotional force and narrative suspense, Aaron Bobrow-Strain brings us into the heart of a violently unequal America. He also shows us that the heroes of our current immigration wars are less likely to be perfect paragons of virtue than complex, flawed human beings who deserve justice and empathy all the same.
There There is the debut novel by Cheyenne and Arapaho author Tommy Orange. Published in 2018, the book follows a large cast of Native Americans living in the Oakland, California area and contains several essays on Native American history and identity. The characters struggle with a wide array of challenges, ranging from depression and alcoholism, to unemployment, fetal alcohol syndrome, and the challenges of living with an "ambiguously nonwhite" ethnic identity in the United States. All of the characters unite at a community powwow and its attempted robbery.
The Sum of Us: Heather McGhee’s specialty is the American economy—and the mystery of why it so often fails the American public. From the financial crisis of 2008 to rising student debt to collapsing public infrastructure, she found a root problem: racism in our politics and policymaking. But not just in the most obvious indignities for people of color. Racism has costs for white people, too. It is the common denominator of our most vexing public problems, the core dysfunction of our democracy and constitutive of the spiritual and moral crises that grip us all. But how did this happen? And is there a way out?
This Chair Rocks: A Manifesto Against Ageism: Ashton Applewhite: The book explains the roots of ageism—in history and in our own age denial—and how it divides and debases, examines how ageist myths and stereotypes cripple the way our brains and bodies function, looks at ageism in the workplace and the bedroom, exposes the cost of the all-American myth of independence, critiques the portrayal of olders as burdens to society, describes what an all-age-friendly world would look like, and concludes with a rousing call to action.
We can’t talk about that at work! Instead of shutting down any mention of taboo topics, Mary-Frances Winters shows how to structure intentional conversations about them, so people can safely confront biases and stereotypes and create stronger, more inclusive organizations.
But I’m not Racist!: Tools for Well Meaning Whites Who would you be if you were no longer afraid someone would call you racist? What impact could you have if you had proven tools and techniques to create greater racial justice in your organization? For the past two decades as a speaker and an executive coach, Dr. Kathy Obear has helped thousands of whites find the courage to challenge and change the dynamics of racism in their organizations.
