U.S. Navy ‘Inclusion And Diversity’ Report Includes Pledge To ‘Advocate For And Acknowledge’ All ‘Intersectional Identities’

A new report from the U.S. Navy on inclusion and diversity includes a pledge for members of a new task force to “advocate for and acknowledge all lived experiences and intersectional identities of every Sailor in the Navy.”

The task force, dubbed Task Force One Navy (TF1N), was announced in June 2020, to “analyze and evaluate issues in our society and military that detract from Navy readiness, such as racism, sexism and other structural and interpersonal biases to attain significant, sustainable [inclusion and diversity]-related reform.”
