Spring is a time of renewal: the days get longer, the weather gets warmer, and the foliage begins to bloom anew. From resurrection to emancipation, many religions celebrate rebirth during this time of year. With Easter, Passover, and Ramadan overlapping this year, we share the various world religious traditions celebrating renewal this time of year in this issue of the Affinity newsletter.

MBLB’S COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY
MBLB strives to be a diverse law firm. Our goal is to create and maintain an environment that welcomes and fosters mutual respect for different perspectives, backgrounds and life experiences regardless of gender, race, creed, color, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, age or disability. We are committed to ensuring that professional growth and advancement are based on capability and performance and recognize that a diverse workforce enriches our experiences and lends to our success. We value and support all who positively contribute to our practice and our community.
MBLB’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Committee members include members Alan Brackett and Mike Parks along with associate JoAnn Hymel.
Among the initiatives the DE&I Committee has launched is the Affinity newsletter, which allows diverse voices and points of view to be shared, both within our firm and externally. The newsletter is intended to educate, particularly on historical diversity issues and their impact on or by the law. While these articles provide valuable perspective, they are not intended to espouse a position by the firm.
