NAAFA NEWSLETTER ARTICLES
The NAAFA Newsletter is our monthly electronic publication updating our community on NAAFA plans, programming, and other important news. The newsletter is edited and approved by the Board of Directors Communications Committee.
Fat Lib and DEI
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are key components of NAAFA’s work today. As the government and the business world downplay, demonize, and dismantle DEI, our core values require that we do even more to ensure that the intersectional approaches we have worked hard to incorporate into our work remain at the center of our mission to end size discrimination. Our Executive Director, Tigress Osborn, discusses what DEI truly is and how the attacks on DEI impact fat community.
Anti-Racism Resources - February 2025
Each month, we feature educational resources in the NAAFA Newsletter to support our community in working to dismantle racism. Resources may include historical information, tools for personal reflection, or information about how to get involved and make change. Many of the resources we suggest will be introductory resources, and this information is never intended to be full coverage on the complex and nuanced topics that are chosen each month.
This month we invite you to join us in exploring resources about Black History Month.
