Black Children Need Advocates
Let's remember that Diversity and Inclusion learning is for the purpose of creating true equality and improving the lives of Black people and people of color.
It is not a trend simply for White people to feel better about themselves or to feel like good parents.
The thing is, it can feel that way when one simply checks the "ally box" and moves on. That's because there is a whole next step...advocacy.
Yes, you FEEL like you are a safe space. You FEEL like you are AWARE...But, are you an advocate?
Are you stepping up in the same way you would for a member of your family?
Do you have a badge or a microphone?
