The All Blacks and the Black Ferns have made a very public statement on where they stand on diversity and inclusiveness as they launched their 'diversity is strength' campaign. Pairing up with AIG, the two teams released a two minute video outlining their values. "It will take more than 15 - it will take thousands - millions"The video shows the All Black and Black Ferns squads travelling to a rugby stadium in Osaka, Japan. It came in the wake of a controversial homophobic comment made by Wallabies player Israel Folau three weeks ago. "I believe the Bible is the truth and sometimes the truth can be difficult to hear," he said.
