Whoa! Do you even know how many people and organizations are using their influence to amplify Black voices? This month, influential people and organizations are chasing Black artists like Brits following a cheese wheel downhill.

You probably know I’ve benefited from the attention, so… I might be a little biased.

There’s also:

• YouTube’s “multiyear” $100 million fund to “center and amplify Black voices and perspectives”

• Singer Halsey’s Black Creators Fund

• Artist Trust’s list of Black-led arts and heritage organizations that you can support with your time and money

• A ton of individuals, corporations and non-profits lending their social media to amplify Black voices. Ahem.

All right, I’ll bite (the hand currently feeding me). How long does the amplification last this time?

How many years in a YouTube “multiyear” commitment? Which specific Black creators benefit from the Halsey fund? Any social media takeover invites next year to artists with fewer than a thousand followers? Let’s act on this moment consistently — persistently — not just before and after Black History Month. Pace yourself. We’ll need your support in 2021 and 2022 and 2023…
