\u201cI am both honored and inspired to be the Chairman of Anthem\u2019s newly formed Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) committee,\u201d shared Dan Hill. \u201cSince releasing records in the early ’70s to present day, I\u2019ve witnessed seismic advancements in the vital work of making the music industry a more diverse, inclusive, and equitable field. And in many respects, Anthem has been a front runner in the entertainment business when it comes to implementing DEI initiatives and bringing much needed awareness to the challenges so many creators face. Naturally, there is always more work to be done. I will do everything in my power to further galvanize, implement, and bring awareness to all things related to DEI, both at Anthem and throughout the music business as a whole.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are humbled and grateful to have Dan as Chairman of our DEI committee,\u201d shares Helen Murphy, CEO, Anthem Entertainment. \u201cIn addition to being a Black artist in America struggling to be treated equally, Dan and his family have been trailblazers for advancing Black rights for over half a century in Canada and the U.S. In 1962, Dan\u2019s father was appointed to start the first Ontario Human Rights Commission during a time when the media and the public were resistant to the rights of minorities. Anthem Entertainment is honored to have Dan\u2019s creativity, integrity and amazing life journey as a guiding light.\u201d<\/p>\n
