ATTN: if you need an example of what it looks like for Black ppl to be excluded from birding/outdoor exploration, here’s 1. @zookeeperjake asked why his post about #BlackBirdersWeek was taken down from the Tennessee naturalist fb. This is why #BlackBirdersWeek is NECESSARY.

#BlackBirdersWeek made it to @NatGeo y’all!!! It’s hard to believe that a little over a week ago this event was just an idea bouncing around a group of friends💚 @BlackAFinSTEM Thank you to everyone who elevated our voices. We aim to change the world. nationalgeographic.com/newsl…

It’s time for me to (re) introduce myself. My name is Kaylee, I am an ecologist, and this is me #BlackInNature. Fortunately, I grew up near the ocean and fell in love at an early age. But I didn’t think wildlife science was for me until I got to college. – at Athens, GA

I'm a coral reef and invasion ecologist. I was born and raised in The Bahamas but I study in Canada. I'm happiest around water, particularly the ocean. #BlackInNature #BlackAFinSTEM

#BlackInNature I grew up never seeing anyone who looked like me in my classes, in my textbooks or working in my field. It's part of the reason why after studying marine biology I started working on wildlife documentaries. Nature is for everyone. Inspire the change you want to see – at South East, England

What's this? White birders answering questions? lol Listen I'm happy for all birders to answer bird questions but if it is specifically #AskABLACKBirder, then maybe wait until its time for us to answer questions? Our voices are supposed to be heard here. That's the whole thing /:
