The memo reads in part, "The Department supports the use of the term 'Black Lives Matter' in messaging content, speeches, and other diplomatic engagements with foreign audiences to advance racial equity and access to justice on May 25 and beyond. We encourage posts to focus on the need to eliminate systemic racism and its continued impact."
On January 20, as one of his first official actions, President Biden issued Executive Order 13985 to advance racial equity and support for underserved communities.
To achieve his policy objectives, President Biden issued several additional executive actions to support underserved communities and advance racial equity, which notably include: Memorandum Condemning and Combating Racism, Xenophobia, and Intolerance Against Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders in the United States Executive Order #14020 on Establishment of the White House Gender Policy Council, and Presidential Memorandum on Advancing the Human Rights of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex Persons Around the World.
The Department's policy efforts with respect to advancing racial equity as part of supporting our national security interests are as follows: Partnering with like-minded nations and civil society stakeholders to counter disinformation, propaganda, and the concerted malign influence of state and non-state actors which sow racial discord among communities, undermining democratic norms.
The United States remains concerned about the racial inequities of underserved communities, both domestically and abroad. The Department supports the use of the term "Black Lives Matter" in messaging content, speeches, and other diplomatic engagements with foreign audiences to advance racial equity and access to justice on May 25 and beyond.
Posts are strongly encouraged to make full use of Department and Interagency tools and resources to promote policy objectives to advance racial equity and support for underserved communities throughout the year, including with a particular focus on May 25 and during June to commemorate Juneteenth and lesser-known racially motivated attacks such as the Tulsa Race Massacre - the 100th anniversary of which will take place May 31 - June 1, 2021.
This video compilation will also feature senior Department leaders to demonstrate the Administration's commitment to racial equity and support for underserved communities.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
