We're standing in solidarity and speaking out against oppression, systemic racism, and hate. We are listening, and we are learning. We will do better. Black lives matter.
| | Across the Verywell brands, our goal is always to help you feel better. But right now, our hearts are heavy and we're struggling to know how to do that. We mourn the senseless deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, Tony McDade, and too many before them. | | We don't have all the answers, but Verywell is committed to standing in solidarity and speaking out against oppression, systemic racism, and hate. We have a responsibility to provide you with credible, thoughtful resources to help you navigate these topics and to spread messages of inclusivity, equality, and human rights. | | We promise to listen, learn, and help you care for your physical and mental health—with the hope that together, we can create an anti-racist world where everyone has the access, rights, and power to feel their best. | | For now, we encourage you to be kind—to yourself and to others—and channel some of this despair into positive, productive, and sustained action. | | Donate to organizations supporting meaningful change: | | | Read and reflect with these books about anti-racism: | | - How to Be an Antiracist by Ibram X.
