Today we celebrate TIME's second annual The Closers list—25 Black leaders working tirelessly to close the economic and health gaps and create equity. At a moment when progress faces resistance and erasure, media has the power to be a public record of that resistance. Thank you to the brilliant editorial team at TIME for championing this vision, and to The Closers themselves who have boldly shared their stories and allowed their work to be seen in this context. That, in itself, is brave. Immense gratitude to our committed partners W.K. Kellogg Foundation and La June Montgomery Tabron for being true leaders in this space and making this possible. Please take the time to digest, share, and even support The Closers work. And know that this work is always happening. TIME https://lnkd.in/eT3K7NnC
