NAMC is celebrating Sarah Boone.

Sarah Boone was an African American dressmaker who made her name by inventing the modern-day ironing board. In her patent application, she wrote that the purpose of her invention was "to produce a cheap, simple, convenient and highly effective device, particularly adapted to be used in ironing the sleeves and bodies of ladies' garments." With its approval in 1892, Boone became one of the first African American women to be awarded a patent.

80 years of local black development and growth have been summarized, up to this point not much has been said about the people who built these neighborhoods and literally the entire early city itself. There is a reason for this. There are multiple faces and stories of our past and history is generally presented from the perspective of those in position of leadership at the time. For a long period of time, people of color involved in architecture and construction could not attend certain schools, become a part of certain professional organizations or walk into a Jim Crow era city hall and pull permits on their own accord. Because of the color of their skin, other means had to be found. As such, those who built many of our historic buildings remain largely unknown today.

Research shows that inclusive workplaces are SIX times more likely to be innovative and TWICE as likely to meet or surpass financial goals. On top of that, employees who feel able to bring their whole selves to work are 42% less likely to plan on leaving for another position within a year. Having an inclusive organization goes beyond the cultivation of diverse individuals; the sharing of power amongst these individuals must be embedded in the infrastructure of your organization.

We must explore biases and assumptions that exist within many of us to truly live into diversity and inclusion in the workplace.
