We are heartbroken over the tragic events that have taken place over the past week. These recent events have brought to light the systemic racism and injustices affecting the black community. As an organization, we realize we have not done enough. We recognize that with our privilege and our platform, we have a responsibility to take a stand, take action and be advocates for the necessary changes that need to take place.
As mothers, we have a responsibility to educate our children and raise them with the values we know to be right and actively anti-racist. As a business, we are committed to listening, learning and enabling change within our organization. All of this begins with education and empowerment.
Ani + Wren has always been a resource for mothers and their families and we will continue to provide a space for conversation, education and listening. In the long term, we will also continue to share anti-racism resources to our community, uplifting and amplifying these voices.
We don’t have all the answers, but we are listening and learning to do everything we can to help advocate for change. Please join us, and together let's open up the conversation about race — with our friends, our families, our colleagues and our communities.
