Black Lives Matter
Systemic racism permeates every area of our society, from the way we are taught to think or interact with each other, to the way laws are made and how the people representing those laws can continue to tacitly equate whiteness to the norm, the aspiration, the "ultimate" version of what out society should be. To dismantle this insidious yet global white supremacy, it is important to educate ourselves, amplify Black voices, read and listen to their experience.
