Choose one and start there. Books: So You Want to Talk About Race by Ijeoma Oluo Me and White Supremacy by Layla F. Saad How to Be an Antiracist by Ibram X. Kendi White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo Actions: Donate money, time and resources. HACK YOUR ALGORITHM on streaming services, social media platforms, etc to show you more content created by Black people in order to support Black creators, tastemakers and businesses - search for movies and shows with Black casts, add them to your list, follow their accounts, etc. You must actively change the algorithm or you will continue to be shown accounts that are similar, and likely similar to you. AND THEN, this does not stop by just adding them to a list and moving on! Watch the shows, the movies, buy the products, tell others about them, etc - follow through! Compensate people who are doing the work. If you learn from a post, shared doc, resource, etc - compensate whoever put in the emotional labor of sharing and creating the content. Find their payment info and pay them. Birth/Pre- and Post-Natal Care - extensive resources, including list of BIPOC providers/resources and queer-friendly and affirming practitioners available.
