Starter Packs
Created by Sherrilyn Ifill (1)
Black democracy experts
Most democracy starter packs include no or very few Black experts. Ironically they exclude many of the people who have had the most accurate insights into how we arrived at this moment in our country & the work we must do. Keep it diverse Bluesky!
