GA-SWOG celebrates Black History Month! It is not only a time to recognize black excellence and the foundational contributions to our society made by black Americans, but also to elevate black voices and to continue to fight against systemic oppression, racism, and disparities faced by black communities. Actively learning the lessons from Black History is the only way we as social workers can uphold our ethical responsibilities and provide ethical practice to those who need it. What can you do all year round to support the Black community? 1.) Purchase from Black Owned Businesses 2.) Listen to, follow, and pay Black Creators for their work 3.) Speak out against racism in all its forms at all levels--from the government, to your communities, to your homes 4.) Sign petitions and donate to meaningful organizations 5.) Reflect on your own biases and problematic actions and continually work on your anti-racism education

As we recognize and celebrate Black History Month throughout the month of February, we must remember that Black History is American History, and we must study and remember it always. There are many things we can do as a collective to ensure we’re bringing awareness, love, and light to the black community. Make it a personal goal to: • Use your platform to educate about black history, justice, and equality. • Follow up on the commitments and promises you made during the BLM protests. • Share a post from a black business owner in your community. • Support, shop, and recommend black businesses in your area. • Collaborate and work together with black businesses where you can. Let’s work together to be the change we want to see in our world.

Our collective power as a community fighting for equality is only strengthened by solidarity across movements.
