Sona Jobarteh is from a West African griot family. For centuries, griots have been musicians and storytellers. Women in griot families were traditionally singers, but only men were allowed to play the instruments. cbsn.ws/3X1yjZi

Great breakdown of the paradox of choice & how Trader Joe’s solves for it (selling 2x the amount per sq ft that Whole Foods does) teapawt.net/trungtphan/status/1454…
Replying to @TrungTPhan
2/ In 2000, Stanford researches highlighted "The Paradox of Choice" by setting up 2 display tables in a store with: ◻️24 jam option (60% of shoppers tried, 3% bought) ◻️6 jam options (40% of shoppers tried, 30% bought) The table with fewer jam options converted 10x better!

Saddened to learn of the killing of a Muslim Pakistani-origin Canadian family in London, Ontario. This condemnable act of terrorism reveals the growing Islamophobia in Western countries. Islamophonia needs to be countered holistically by the international community.

#amplifyBlackvoices Celebrating and standing with @violadavis I am listening and picking a lane.
Radical change can take place in homes, in schools, in boardrooms, voting booths, etc... 401 yrs of systemic racism needs a comprehensive array of radical revolutionary intervention. ❤🤜🏿

As white women, we have a responsibility to look after all women who are even more marginalized than us. We have to show up for women of color and the LGBTQ community in ways that they have shown up. We need to show these communities that we stand with them. Make 2020 the year.

See part of the skyline you didn’t know was there. Visit Brookfield Place to see just how big a tower would need to be to house the 116,000+ GTA households who struggle to put an affordable roof over their heads. Hurry! Exhibit closes Nov 8! [untdwy.org/2MZmKA8 #UNIGNORABLE

My documentary ‘Hello Privilege, It’s Me Chelsea’ is streaming now on @Netflix! A As a white person, we need to learn that it’s not the jobs of people of color to educate us. We need to educate ourselves about privilege. We need to step up and take responsibility.
