During Black History Month, we proudly shine a light on and celebrate our incredibly talented team members. We’d like to share a few of the amazing conversations we had with team members this month. By honoring the past and sharing their thoughts and stories, we aim to continue strengthening our community of inclusion and diversity.

Samuel Duchatelier – Cook at Harvard Business School
Which African American figure do you admire the most and why?
“Jackie Robinson. Jackie was born in 1919 in Georgia, and he was the youngest of his siblings. He was the first African American to play in the major leagues and he played for the Brooklyn Dodgers. Jackie had to deal with countless incidents of racism, but he never gave into the hate. He managed his career with class and dignity. His jersey was number 42. I am an active athlete myself and I was honored to wear the number 42 jersey when I played baseball.”

Kerven Julce – Kitchen Person at Harvard Business School
If you could have a meal and conversation with any African American artist or figure, past or present. Who would you like to meet and what is one question you would like to ask them?
“I would say Malcolm X, he had the most impact on my life through his book. I would want to get his opinion to see what he thinks about what is going on in the world today - politics, the wars going on in society right now. I wish he were around to talk about who we are now. What he thinks about culture today, how we talk, what he thinks about technology, the many different races in this country. To see what he thinks about how far we have come and where we have struggled.”

Louninque Occean – Kitchen Person at Harvard Business School
What does Black History Month mean to you and what would you say to the future generations about the progress of African Americans in this country today?
“Black History Month is a crucial time to reflect on the achievements and contributions of African Americans. To future generations, I would express the ongoing progress, resilience, and achievements of African Americans, encouraging them to learn, appreciate, and contribute to creating a more loveable future for all.”
