Black History Month should prompt reflection on the narratives we want to emphasize to celebrate the full spectrum of Black experiences. By doing so, we can break down stereotypes, and foster a more inclusive and accurate representation of Black history.

With the holidays approaching, we know that many of you are gearing up to have those conversations with family and friends around the table. This month, we are encouraging you to 1) dig into the structure of Race Class Narrative to understand why we say things in the order we do and 2) go back and read former newsletters to be able to resist taking the bait from that one uncle and know how to positively redirect the conversation.
