Black History Month is also an emotional one
Typically, by the end of February, I am exhausted. Chances are I’ve cried during or after most of these conversations because if we’re not digging deep, what is the benefit of these conversations? This is the emotional labour of Black leadership, of Black History Month.

Black History Month lands in the shortest month of the year, and one of the busiest ones for me. In 2024, we get one extra day—for me that is one more day of sharing, listening, and healing.
