This apology has been a long time coming, and it is a first step toward redress. It took a village to make this happen and I have so many people to thank; too numerous to list here. The SFAC staff, mentors and colleagues, folks who attended and spoke out during the 10/16/19, 7/15/20 and 8/3/20 meetings, folks who wrote letters, folks who advocated on my behalf, folks on various platforms who invited me to speak, folks who boycotted the 2020RFQ, journalists who kept the story alive, and my sisters at See Black Women who tirelessly organized and mobilized so that Black women can be heard and our labor respected and valued. Thank you Zachary Small and The New York Times for covering this story.
