Description
It’s Black History Month and we have decided to celebrate by doing some critical self-reflection about our performative activism surrounding the Black Lives Matter movement last summer. Since then, we have put in the work to further educate ourselves about the white supremacist society that we were raised in, how it affects us presently, and what we can do better to combat it. We discuss our own faults, and pledge to be more conscious beings who are radically honest with ourselves about our privileges and shortcomings. We are always learning and growing, and open to critique.
