"It is critical that we lean into conversations and dialogue to better understand each others' perspectives," said Tim Ryan, US Chairman and Senior Partner, PwC. "Our firm has been at the forefront of rallying companies, organizations and employees together to build a culture of inclusion and we are proud to support this movement."
All groups in the alliance will mobilize their constituents, employees, and colleagues to engage in discussions about differing personal backgrounds and life experiences, in order to build bridges and forge deeper, more connected relationships.

"The pioneering Oneday Against Hate conversations, which at times may be hard and even painful, will light the way to creating a more just, inclusive, and open-minded world," said Jonathan Greenblatt, the CEO and National Director of ADL. "Organizations across the country are standing up to show that understanding is stronger than prejudice."
"As an organization that supports more than 7,000 student-athletes of all backgrounds, the Pac-12 Conference is committed to promoting a culture of diversity and inclusion," said Larry Scott, conference Commissioner, "We are excited to join the Oneday Against Hate campaign and use our platforms, as well as the power of sport, to create positive dialogues of understanding."
In addition to in-person conversations taking place at participating organizations, the ongoing, self-perpetuating Oneday Against Hate movement will motivate people of all ages and backgrounds to engage in online and offline exchanges.
"Through BBYO, teens practice ways to support one another and stand together despite differences. Oneday Against Hate's message of engaging in conversations about understanding as part of our everyday lives, is a message we can all learn from and take forward in building stronger communities around the world," said Debbie Shemony, Vice President of Marketing and Communications, BBYO.
