Black Lives Matter – 11 links

I know everyone here will have seen and read about the recent racism protests all around the world recently. The ethical and sustainable fashion industry has a history of being exclusive and often uninviting to people of colour. As a white woman, I haven’t been doing enough to stop that. The brands I feature on The Green Edition haven’t been doing enough. The whole sustainability, environmentalism, and fashion sectors haven’t been doing enough.

I’ve shared 11 links below. From ways to support the black community to books that offer far more information on racism and white privilege than I ever could. I’ll be sharing more brands owned by black women soon but there are a couple here too to keep you going in the meantime.
