How We’re #AmplifyingMelanatedVoices + How You Can Too
*THIS* is the last post you’ll see directly from myself or Megan for the rest of the week. Instead, we’ll be focusing our energy/time on sharing content from POC - *especially* Women of Color, as part of the #𝐀𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐌𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝𝐕𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬 effort - @blackandembodied @jessicawilson.msrd @sheisthisdesigns (art!)
As white women, Megan and I have been spending a lot of time consuming, listening and learning. We’re taking the lead from black activists and leaders. This is their life’s work. A lot of them are guiding us on how to effectively help and spread their message.
We’re not going to get it right every time… and that’s ok. We’ll continue to try. We’ll continue to do the work… and we’ll keep doing it OUT LOUD. As a company, and as allies of the Black community, #BlackLivesMatter and people of color - we aim to ALWAYS set an example for our community of how true leaders should show up during moments of injustice.
Ways growing...
