We must continue to address policies that marginalize black students and perpetuate inequalities while working to implement anti-racism policies. https://ow.ly/CpHI50QFFXI

It's Black History Month, and while taking the time to celebrate the achievements of black individuals, it's important to remember that support for your black colleagues should extend beyond February. You must actively listen, acknowledge their experiences, and take them seriously. It's unfair to make assumptions about their behavior based on YOUR own insecurities. Let's give your black/POC colleagues the support they deserve, not just this month, but every month. Allyship is not meant to be self-serving. #BlackHistoryMonth #DiversityandInclusion

Amplifying black voices everyday is one way we promote inclusion and diversity. Speak for those who wouldn't otherwise have access or recognition in your circles. Black History Month is about amplifying black voices and black stories. It's about seats at tables we both created and infiltrated. It's about his-tory and her-story and all the stories yet to be told and yet to be written. History is to be cherished, learned from, and passed down to each generation. In a time where History is constantly being rewritten or misrepresented, take this time to amplify those that might otherwise be erased or unheard. Use this thread to tag and promote your favorite Black owned businesses, artists, creators, leaders, and more. Happy Black History Month!! 💜
