Synthesize, analyze, and build upon last year’s submissions to @blackivystories Instagram page
After successfully receiving over 350 anonymous accounts of racism against Black people in the Ivy League, we believe it is our responsibility to provide insights, recommendations, and verifiable evidence for creating positive change in the coming year-- and we are confident this project will help us do that. We are hoping to receive content about the unequal impacts of the global pandemic, the resurgence of #BLM, the controversial US election, and the resulting policy changes. With these stories, plus the editorial work our staff can provide, we hope to spark a necessary conversation about the past year and the year going forward.
Connect with Black creators in the Ivy League
We hope to create a space that is aimed explicitly for supporting and uplifting the voices of black creators and anti-racist content in the ivy league, and by doing that we allow their work to be shared with audiences that may otherwise never see it. Working together this action will help to reinforce a creative community that can exist far beyond the scope of the final product
