I wouldn’t be able to do my job if Black women didn’t help me. This dependence is important to name and hold sacred.

This is so important. I see so many large public health organizations offering unpaid internships. If you understand the Racial Wealth Gap in the US (google it), you will understand why this perpetuates racism and classism, along with other forms of oppression. Pay your workers.
🧵The first paid White House Intern class in recent history! As a former unpaid one myself, I remember telling people that @payourinterns would be launching a campaign to ensure the program was paid. Most thought the campaign would not be successful.
The issue was Congress..1/4

I see this trend & it’s weird…people leading community-based work or scholarship wanting to receive high praise & sole credit for the work, impact, reach. I pray we can move from these individualist hierarchical models toward deeply collective + lateral + collaborative projects.
