lorilovesowls:some things to keep doing this Black history month…and the other 11 months of the year:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀reading Black-authored books (all genres!)learning from Black anti-racist educators (and paying for their time too!)supporting Black-owned businesses + creatorsdonating your time/money/resources to Black organizationsamplifying and listening to Black voicesmaking short-term and long-term actionable goals to support Black liberation (in ways the Black community is actually asking for!)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Can’t stress enough my friends the importance of honoring the Black community 365 days of the year, but this upcoming month is certainly no better of a time to keep learning more about Black history, celebrating Black joy, supporting Black creators/educators authentically, and holding yourself accountable to actionable steps in supporting Black liberation today and everyday.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Many Black educators are kindly putting out paid and free resources for Black history month, a huge reminder that you can and should pay them for their time if you are able to. Support them on Patreon, buy their classes, drop some funds in their Venmo, show them that their time matters to you. Words and art by Courtney Ahn -- source link
