Wildlife Weekly Round Up + More Black Leaders In Conservation 💚
As a community, we've learned a lot in recent days, weeks, and months—but this is just the beginning, and there is so much more to learn and do.
While we plan to unmute Animalia programming in order to continue to serve and help wildlife conservations worldwide, we will never return to "business as usual."
We will continue to spotlight Black and other BIPOC leaders in the conservation and climate space with the hope that we can help amplify their voices and hard work.
We will be educating ourselves with J.E.D.I Training (Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion) and keep stepping up by donating and collaborating with Black-Owned production partners and organizations helping BIPOC youth and conservationists.
A kinder, more just world is possible when we learn and work together. ❤️
