Wall Street Journal Bestseller"A useful, forcefully written, and wide-ranging study of inequities—and how to fix them." —Kirkus ReviewsWhat if we could go beyond the conversation about diversity and take real action? In early 2021, more than two hundred widely respected experts gathered virtually for the world’s most ambitious conversation about diversity. Our aim was to do more than spotlight injustice. We challenged ourselves to imagine how to fix it. The dialogue brought together casting directors, bookstore owners, disabled leaders, healthcare professionals, students, VCs, standup comedians, chief diversity officers, pro gamers, archaeologists, government insiders, startup founders, and even a master puppeteer. Now for the first time, these solutions are compiled into one groundbreaking volume organized into twelve powerful themes including: storytelling, technology, identity, retail, education and more. Each chapter paints a revealing picture of the world, how it is, how it could be and what needs to happen for us to get there. For newcomers to the topic of diversity, and DEI experts alike, this book offers a much-needed actionable blueprint for creating a more inclusive world for us all.

A photographic journey through neglected, decaying buildings, capturing their forgotten architectural grandeur and the silent echoes of the past. Abandoned New York: The Forgotten Beauties offers readers a trip back to a grander time of architecture and living. From urban New York City to the vast rural areas above it, the photographs in this publication capture the remains of buildings, many now reclaimed by nature. Former houses, hospitals, theaters, and places of congregate worship now sit idle and stuck in time. Inside these places, as well as out, hearken back to times where life was far different than the contemporary. Follow author Jenn Brown on her photographic journey of several years inside places outside the eyes of the public. Jenn invites viewers to experience a different side of places most turn a blind eye towards and see the beauty beyond decay. Buildings now vacant and in a state of disrepair still adorn architectural elements of unreplicated beauty. The silence of once bustling factories, hospitals, and homes is loud, and in some ways, seems unfitting for places of mass assembly, even in closure. Decades of vandals, arson, and inevitable demolition leave only photographs and memories of their inhabitants to pay tribute to their existence.
