All Aboard: Celebrating Our Stories

History and Heritage Monthly Recognition

In celebration of contributions of historically marginalized identities, ACT's DE&I Committee commemorates each month throughout the year to shed awareness to all types of people and stories. The following features provide continued learning opportunities that recognize and value historical legacies and experiences of a diverse array of identities. This monthly awareness programming supports our efforts to enrich our DE&I knowledge by featuring events, people, and stories through an equitable lens in the context of transportation. The goals are to:

Provide awareness to the diversity of our transportation history
Highlight diverse individuals or groups that have contributed to the transportation industry
Feature a wide range of inclusive perspectives in transportation discussion and topics

We invite you to explore these and other educational resources and links on this page. We will add resources as they become available.

Collaboration and suggestions are strongly encouraged. We invite you to share other widely recognized observances for consideration. Your ideas and input help raise awareness and provide opportunities for cross learning and connection at ACT. Please feel free to contact the committee if you have a highlight or event that you want featured during a certain month.
