Like many other organizations in central Indiana, WFYI is a part of ongoing accountability work around diversity, equity and inclusion. Here's how that's going so far.

Friday in Indianapolis, Martin University honors that history with a new National Center for Racial Equity and Inclusion. It aims to foster, support and sustain equity through workshops, lectures and other programs. WFYI's Terri Dee spoke with President Sean Huddleston about that work.

Martin University will host a Juneteenth event on June 18th and unveil its new effort to address racial injustice through workshops, lectures, programs, and initiatives.

A controversial job posting by Newfields last February included wording many viewed as elitist and racist and led to the president's resignation. The first Black woman to lead the Newfields Board of Trustees has been elected and discusses implementing positive changes.

For the first time, a majority-women's team is competing in the Indy 500 this weekend. The team is a part of a broader effort to bring more diversity to motor sports. Only nine women and only two Black drivers have ever competed in the so-called "Greatest Spectacle in Racing."

Indy Parks released a new Racial Equity Statement recently after conducting internal evaluations, staff surveys, and listening sessions.

The Newfields Board of Trustees released the plan Friday, saying it represents "the first steps" to take the arts institution in a new direction.
