Deloitte Digital Welcomes Nathan Young on Board for Further Endeavors

In the wake of the George Floyd incident last summer, a pivotal moment was sparked in the advertising industry. This marked the birth of 600 & Rising, an advocacy group co-founded by Bennett D. Bennett and Nathan Young, two industry insiders.

The formation of 600 & Rising signified a change within the industry, a response to the calls for action on diversity, equity, and inclusion. The group was created to address systemic issues and promote change within the advertising world.

Nathan Young, a former group strategy director at Periscope, played a key role in the early stages of 600 & Rising. His involvement with the organization was not without challenges, but it was during these early stages that the group began to take shape.

The evolution of 600 & Rising was further highlighted by a notable action taken within the industry. Last July, Young led a walkout at Periscope in Minneapolis, supported by all employees. This internal action within the advertising industry was a significant event in the early days of 600 & Rising.

The walkout at Periscope was a response to the George Floyd incident and the calls for action on diversity, equity, and inclusion. It was a demonstration of employee support for 600 & Rising's mission and underscored the impact and influence of the group within the industry.

Unfortunately, there are no recent search results providing information on the current status of 600 & Rising or any recent actions by the organization to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion. It is unclear what the future holds for the group, but its early impact within the advertising industry is undeniable.

Meanwhile, Bennett D. Bennett, the content lead at Aerialist, continues to make strides in the industry. His co-founding of 600 & Rising serves as a testament to his commitment to promoting change and addressing systemic issues within the advertising world.

The nation's anger towards institutions exposed structural racism, calling for action on diversity, equity, and inclusion. The formation of 600 & Rising was a response to these calls, and while its future remains uncertain, its impact on the advertising industry is clear. The group has shown that change is possible, and it serves as a beacon of hope for those who seek a more inclusive and equitable future.
