Y'all! This illustration is BEAUTIFUL! Buy a Black in Natural History Museums t-shirt to support their mission! #BlackinNHMs @blackinnhms.bsky.social
Join me in ordering a #BlackInNHMs t-shirt. It's an awesome shirt (I wear mine from last year all the time & just added one in the 2nd color), sends an important message, and supports an important cause.
