Updated: Dec 19, 2021

"It is a privilege to learn about racism instead of experiencing it your whole life."

~ Ahmed Ali


"It's up to all of us - Black, white, everyone - no matter how well-meaning we think we might be, to do the honest, uncomfortable work of rooting it out. It starts with self-examination and listening to those whose lives are different from our own."

~ Michelle Obama
