Description

BLACK WOMEN FOR BLACK LIVES (BW4BL)This group started by 3 accidental activists Korrine Sky, Tokunbo Koiki and Patricia Daley has been amplifying the stories of black students affected by the Ukrainian crisis. They also have a GOFUNDME appeal, which I have donated to. To date the group says it has supported over 1200 black students whose lives have been upended by this crisis.https://gofund.me/e6f68963Also follow them on Twitter for updates:@kokosky@toksyk27Isha Sesay is a Goodwill Ambassador for UNFPA and they deserve to be spotlighted for the incredible work they are doing in Ukraine. A number of maternity hospitals have been bombed by the Russians - the images rightly shocked the world. It is a fact that  women and girls face their own specific threats and challenges whenever conflict breaks out. Check out the work that UNFPA is doing on the ground via their website and you can also donate to support their effortshttps://www.unfpa.orgFriends of UNFPAFollow Isha Sesay on Twitter and Instagram. Follow Wonder Media NetworkWebsiteInstagramTwitter

Each of us is surrounded by a rich community of connections -- we have some combination of friends, family, partners, co-workers, mentors, and more. Then each of those connections has connections too. It all forms a bustling, complicated, interconnected web. Welcome to Web of WMN, Wonder Media Network's new show that dives into the identities and relationships that form who we are as individuals and communities.
