White & Case celebrates Pride month every June to honor the Stonewall Uprising and to recognize the impact of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and other nonconforming (LGBT+) people around the world. This year, we are particularly focused on the Black members of the LGBT+ community and the Black community at large. It is not difficult to see reflections of the Stonewall Uprising 50 years ago in the current global protests. What started as a spontaneous protest for civil rights at the Stonewall Inn, led by lesbians and trans women of color including Marsha P. Johnson, Stormé DeLarverie and Sylvia Rivera, is now recognized as the catalyst for the international gay rights movement.
Today, Pride represents the promotion of the self-affirmation, dignity, equality and visibility of LGBT+ people⁠—both individually and as a social group. Across the globe, Pride is celebrated by LGBT+ communities and their allies as a time to come together and celebrate the freedom to be oneself in a manner that vehemently rejects shame or social stigma.
Please join us in celebrating our diversity⁠—with immense pride, but always mindful that even with so much progress since the Stonewall Uprising in 1969, the fight for equality and freedom for all continues. #Pride #Pride2020

We wanted to share this message, which was sent by our Chair Hugh Verrier to everyone at White & Case on Monday.

We acknowledge the pain of the Black community worldwide and share the global outrage at the lived experience of enduring racism and inequality. White & Case is committed to fighting racial injustice and working to heal communities, including through pro bono and other volunteer activity.

Our US Asian Affinity Network recently celebrated Asian Pacific American Heritage Month with a virtual screening of the documentary film, "Alternative Facts: The Lies of Executive Order 9066", followed by a panel discussion on the US internment of Japanese Americans during World War II and the relevance of this historical moment to the present day challenges faced by minority groups in the US. After the film, Partner Sylvia Chin moderated a discussion after the screening with panelists Jon Osaki, director of Alternative Facts; Dr. Karen Korematsu, founder and Executive Director of the The Fred T. Korematsu Institute and daughter of Mr. Korematsu; and Donald Tamaki, a member of the 1983 legal team that reopened Mr. Korematsu’s 1944 US Supreme Court case.
