Throughout the month, we have been highlighting and uplifting black voices that have been and are doing environmental work every month of the year. As a wrap up to this month of uplifting voices, highlighting resources and linking articles that speak to the experiences of black people in the environmental sector, we wanted to compile a list of all those things as more! Here is a comprehensive list of everything we uplifted this month and the extra things we wanted to share with you but didn’t have time for because a month is only so long.
