Our team is committed to listening and amplifying Black voices. We are responding to the call to action to doing anything we can to bring an end anti-Black racism. While we will never truly understand the weight that Black lives have carried and continue to carry, it is imperative that we all take time to read, listen, and use our voices to stand up for what is right.
At DoubleShot Creative, we believe Black lives matter.
Today, we are sharing the resources our team is finding helpful to learn more about what we can do to actively participate in creating an anti-racist future.
We are committed to doing the work now and always. If you have additional resources you would like to share with our community, please add them to the comments below.
