Listening and Learning

Written by on June 4, 2020

Goblins and Growlers’ leadership are actively engaging as individuals in the ways that we are best equipped to do so which includes marching in protests, fundraising, donating, and being quiet in order to better listen to POC leadership.

Black Lives Matter leadership has spoken to the performative allyship of white businesses using this time to show support is harmful because it drowns out black voices. We are constantly learning through these experiences how to be better allies and will, as a Goblins & Growlers entity, always be willing to change our approach as we learn how to be most helpful.

For anyone who is interested in learning more, we recommend following these local community leaders on Instagram:
