![“I understand that I will never understand and, however, I stand.” ✊🏽✊🏿✊🏻✊🏾✊🏼 First, to the ladies in the Black community here, I am sorry we keep failing you. I am sorry it has taken so much pain and unnecessary death for my heart to see a dramatic shift. You deserve so much better than what you’ve been given and I promise to listen. I promise to do better by you and be better for you moving forward. Thank you for our conversations this week. I’m so happy you’re here 💕

Second, I have felt compelled this last week to soak up as much as I can. To listen as much as possible. To understand concepts I’ve never heard of. To figure out what I can do next, what I can learn and unlearn next, whose voices I should be listening to. To seek the education I clearly lack. And, I don’t say all of that because I want a medal. I say that because I know some of you are feeling the same. Let’s do this together! Each month, I’m going to share the book I’m reading and the organization I am choosing to donate to and advocate for and invite you to join me in the work of becoming actively anti-racist. This month, I chose Me and White Supremacy: Combat Racism, Change the World, and Become a Good Ancestor by @laylafsaad. [See the organization I donated to in my ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿✊🏼 highlight!] Let me know if you’re in in the comments below!

I understand that the work at hand can feel overwhelming so, if you’d like more book ideas, podcast recommendations, movies to watch and more, I compiled a list of resources and ideas on AlysonHaley.com [link in bio] 🖤🤍🤎 And, in an effort to amplify the voices of those you should REALLY be listening to right now, many of which are in the post, I am choosing to put my posts on Instagram and my blog on pause for the rest of the week. Tomorrow, I won’t be on stories, answering DM’s, emails, or doing anything work related so as to focus on reflection and education. I love this effort started by @blackandembodied and @jessicawilson.msrd and, while I’m a day late to the game, it’s better late than never. #amplifymelanatedvoices](https://alysonhaley.com/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)
