Community Voices: Black History Month special edition featuring #FNLFam

As part of JD | Finish Line’s commitment to act against racism, bigotry, hate and violence, we have focused on our responsibility to being a better ally.

Each week, our Community Voices program works to highlight and amplify Black voices within our community on Instagram Live with a guest who helps us dive into important topics about the #BlackLivesMatter movement. You can find all episodes here.

For the first week of Black History Month 2021, we have welcomed JD Finish Line employees onto the program to speak on issues that are important to them.
