It’s time for us to get out of the way.
We are white, and we know the majority of our readers are white. Right now, our job is to listen. To learn. To begin (and continue) unpacking lifetimes of privilege. To amplify black voices.
So this week, we’re not delivering marketing and fundraising tips and tricks. We’re pointing you to books and podcasts and Instagram accounts that are making us uncomfortable, opening our eyes, and challenging our way of thinking. We’re pointing you to resources that are making us better people.
This is by no means an exhaustive list — we are learning right along with you. It’s simply a starting point on a long path toward justice.
Please let us know what books, articles, accounts, and organizations you are finding helpful as you educate yourself. Unlearning and relearning is awkward and messy — but it’s wildly overdue.
It’s time for us to do the work.
