Right now we are listening and working to incorporate these lessons into our own lives and our work as an organization as well as amplifying the voices of those leading the Black Lives Matter movement. We are sharing a list of resources that we are learning from and we welcome suggestions of additional voices and resources.

We are not experts on this issue and did not create these resources. We are in a process of learning and we want to share resources that others have worked hard to create to support our community members in their own learning. We have also included a list of organizations and initiatives where you can make gifts of time and money.

If you have resources or voices you’d like to add to this list, please do not hesitate to reach out via social media or send us an email at info@evidencefordemocracy.ca.
