Links & Resources to Support Black Lives Matter

Here are just a few of the resources I’ve been turning to for education, inspiration, and ways to help the BLM movement. Obviously, this is a very small list of resources I’ve collected thus far that I think are valuable. There is so much more work to be done than what I’ve shared here, and what I’ve done so far to make changes in my life. But I hope you can find something here that sparks the fire within you to continue to do more each day to celebrate diversity, empower the voices of those who have been silenced for far too long, use your voice and privilege to do good, and make meaningful changes in your own life and in your local and global community.
