A WORD OF ADVICE:

If you wanna say “Black,” say Black!

Not underrepresented
Not under-resourced
Not underprivileged
Not low income
Not inner city
Not urban
Not POC

If you wanna say “Black,” it’s okay to just say... Black. 😉👍🏽 This #BlackHistoryMonth, I am praying for the courage to just say “Black” when I mean it & worry less about upsetting the sensibilities of those unable or unprepared to say “Black” themselves.

How many of you have wished you could take an #ImplicitBias class w/ @DrQuinnCapers4? Then come along with me as I take his class! 🤓👨🏽‍🏫 #ImplicitBias is NOT racism! Remember: racism is an EXPLICIT experience, implicit biases are subtle ways in which all of us are subconsciously primed to behave in different circumstances.
