The Black Lives Matter social media storm has died down and we’ve returned to our new “normal” lives. You posted your black square, perhaps took some time off from posting yourself, and probably had some not so fun realizations that you haven’t been as actively anti-racist as you could be. But we simply can’t stop there. Allyship is a lifelong commitment, and not a trend on Instagram. Before I returned to outfit posts here on the blog, I felt it was important to share a few resources with you so that you can continue to education yourself and be and ally in everyday life.
