I’ll be honest. I have so many thoughts and feelings, words I want to say about the current state of racism in our country. When I get passionate, I share. It’s just what I do.

But instead of posting a new Zimmerman Podcast episode today, where I’d inevitably let my passion and desire to empower and enact change run the conversation, I’m going to quiet my own voice and instead share the podcasts, resources, and actions that have been helpful as I begin the long overdue

work of supporting the Black Lives Matter cause.
