The idea that Black communities and people of color alone are responsible for fighting against racism every single day is misguided and can have dangerous consequences. White Americans have a serious responsibility, in this moment and beyond.
We need to ask ourselves what we are doing proactively to dismantle systemic racism in our communities, our workplaces, and our circles of influence. It’s not enough to stand as an ally. We must be anti-racist.
We must be intentionally and relentlessly supporting Black communities and communities of color on the ground doing the critical work, day in and day out, to dismantle white supremacy across our country.
If you’re able, donate to these organizations as they continue to fight for racial justice in America. This is a small first step, but every action we take adds up, and our response to this moment will shape our future.
