+<big>Join us for February’s Ask Me Anything, where we commit to having an honest, open, and transparent conversation for Black History Month. This month's speakers are public servants and inclusive leaders from diverse backgrounds, departments, and stages of life who will have real and raw conversations celebrating Black excellence in the public service.</big>
-Their complex stories offer an entry point into understanding the multifaceted experiences of Black Canadians.
+<big>Ask Me Anything sessions is a platform to share stories, listen, ask respectful questions and continue on our journey to becoming more inclusive organizations. As individuals you can’t necessarily change where you live, you certainly can’t change your past, but you can adjust who influences you—through the authors you read, music you listen to, movies you watch and interactions with your community. The Ask Me Anything series provides you with an opportunity to increase your perspective—to learn from the lived-experiences of individuals who are bravely sharing their experiences to help educate and move the public service towards a culture where equity is embedded.</big>
-The month of February is the month designated to remembering the contributions Black people have made in the past and continue to make across Canada and beyond. Black History Month is about embracing innovation, resilience, and togetherness toward a united country in which everyone has a chance to prosper.
+<big>The series also provides an opportunity for you to know that you aren’t alone, these experiences, especially the negative ones are systemic and happen all too frequently throughout the public service. The objective by shining this light is to continually increase the network of public servants ready to take action and move forward towards a culture of inclusivity and belonging.</big>
