[00:00:01.160]Like much of the nation,
[00:00:02.400]Nebraska is grappling with issues
[00:00:04.490]of diversity and inclusion.
[00:00:06.670]Now there's a platform to bring the state together.
[00:00:10.451]#NCLUDE is a community of learners
[00:00:15.050]who are going to be able to help inform practices
[00:00:19.340]around inclusive excellence
[00:00:21.010]and I am so excited about it.
[00:00:22.980]Karen Kassebaum is Assistant Vice Chancellor
[00:00:25.500]for Inclusive Leadership and Learning
[00:00:27.500]at the University of Nebraska Lincoln.
[00:00:29.900]Kassebaum and graduate assistant, Jessie Peter,
[00:00:32.650]are overseeing the launch of #NCLUDE,
[00:00:35.541]the Nebraska Community of Learners,
[00:00:37.580]Understanding Diversity Through Education.
[00:00:39.917]#NCLUDE is open to anyone who wants to join.
[00:00:44.588]#NCLUDE as a community for all.
[00:00:46.270]It's a space where everybody can share their diverse views
[00:00:50.590]and learn inclusive practices.
[00:00:52.667]#NCLUDE is built on the belief
[00:00:54.330]that organizations and communities are stronger
[00:00:57.320]when they are inclusive.
[00:00:59.010]It increases a sense of belongingness
[00:01:00.930]with the institution, a sense of being valued.
[00:01:03.430]It promotes creativity and productivity.
[00:01:06.730]It also helps with identifying relatable role models.
[00:01:11.180]The online platform will feature
[00:01:13.160]virtual discussions about important issues
[00:01:15.730]and a book club with the potential
[00:01:17.730]for seminars and workshops.
[00:01:19.780]A year from now, I hope we're rocking it
[00:01:22.240]and keep doing it and don't just stop,
[00:01:24.270]because it isn't a one and done.
[00:01:26.580]This is work and it's hard work.
[00:01:28.640]But hard work will lead to a stronger Nebraska.
[00:01:31.949](upbeat music)
