Implementation Tips
Actions arts and culture organizations can take include:
- Acknowledging and affirming the everyday creativity and self-expression of Black Americans
- Prioritizing community needs, building trust, and embracing the Black community’s desire for self-care and connection
- Challenging the framing of "relevance" in the arts and culture sector so that it becomes broader and includes a fuller view of Black humanity, highlighting joy, leisure, connection, innovation, and brilliance.
