The goal of the Pledge for Individuals is to give individual artists an opportunity to support and advocate for the equity and inclusivity of Black artists in their day-to-day experiences and interactions. While the Pledge for Organizations primarily focuses on equity and inclusivity at the structural level, we believe that individual artists have a significant role to play in helping to create spaces where Black people feel safe, supported, enabled, and empowered to self-advocate in their experiences of anti-Blackness.
The pledge for individuals is coming soon. Connect with us at outreach@theblackpledge.ca to find out more.
