Black History Month is a time to learn about and celebrate Black history – but it’s also a time to reflect on how we can be better allies for Black people year-round.
In this video, listen as acclaimed diversity advocate and educator Dr. Tomayia Colvin and four of Sprout Studio’s trailblazing Ambassadors: Shanicka Roberts, LaJune King, Osa Igiede, and Yvens B. discuss celebrating Black excellence and share their insight on how photographers can show up and support Black communities.
This conversation covers everything from understanding your own privilege, unlearning internalized beliefs, challenging representation in the photography industry, tips for creating images that are more inclusive, and ways YOU can do the work to be a better ally as a photographer, business owner, and human being.
