CONTEXT
Black in Natural History Museums Week (#BlackinNHMs) was founded by Adania Flemming and will take place on Oct 17- 23 (see agenda below). She was inspired by the many Black-in-“X” weeks on Twitter (Black in Entomology Week, Black Birders Week, Black Botanists Week and more) to organize an online event to share the stories, perspectives & knowledge of Black people in the NHM community.

During the week, we also hope to engage Black professionals in natural history museums and build a network. In support of these goals, BlackinNHM has identified several ways non-Black folks can help:

  *   Fundraising (individual donations or helping with fundraising infrastructure)
  *   Behind the scenes event support (help at the week long event to make sure it runs smoothly)
  *   Networking and Promotion (help to promote BINHM, share information to networks and other spaces)
  *   Website maintenance (keep content updated on website)
  *   Content creation (creating social media content and graphics)
  *   Social media (helping to live tweet during events)

If you can support BlackinNHM in any of these ways please complete the survey below.
