Paving a way
for others
NEW YORK, NY
Nathan Young and Bennett D. Bennett founded 600&Rising to advocate for the advancement of Black talent in advertising. The young nonprofit organization takes its name from an open letter with over 600 advertising professionals signatories demanding racial justice over the status quo.
600&Rising recently launched the #CommitToChange initiative to bring attention to diversity within the advertising industry. Companies participating in the initiative must publicly share their internal diversity data broken down by gender identity, race, seniority and department. The organization’s impact is steadily growing as it continues to shed light on the issue of inclusion.
