Angela Davis’ words are evergreen: “In a racist society it is not enough to be non-racist, we must be anti-racist.”

Media must be actively anti-racist. That means, but is not limited to, rejecting both sides-ism, centering Black and Brown voices, never allowing racist disinformation go unchecked, and doing the work to present the facts that dismantle systems of oppression.

The media can do better this Black History Month and always.
