•
The Black Travel Alliance DOES NOT condone bullying! And when we got hold of this thread and overall conversation OUR HEART BROKE!

As influencers and creators we have the ability to use our influence for good and bad. The fact that this traveler had to unfollow one of the most prominent Black travel communities because others treated her unfairly let’s us know WE HAVE A PROBLEM.
•
Further more the comments that followed after her initial statement show other issues we face. This thread sparked conversations everywhere and we want to know how you feel! As you swipe through the comments, we want to know your opinion. You can state them below and you can meet us Tommorow here on IG live to join the conversation!

Hosted by our director of community let’s get real and get to the bottom of this. No opinion is wrong, but let’s organize to fix this issue.
•
And to the traveler who made this statement please know supports you! We want to gift you with the fee for a passport and giftcard to FedEx to take your photos. If y’all know the traveler please let her know we’re looking for her!

WE MADE A HOLIDAY 🙌🏾

November 11th is National Black Travel Day 🖤✈️

That’s right! BTS has founded a national holiday, for us and by us. ✊🏿✊🏼✊🏾✊🏽

What is National Black Travel Day?
This is a day for Black travelers and travel professionals to celebrate diversity, our impact, future and culture in travel. It is an homage to the Black travel movement; a reminder for our allies, our supporters, but also for ourselves that diversity in travel isn’t a trend that ends, it’s necessary for a brighter future for all who travel.

How can you celebrate?
This day is the day to show your unwavering commitment to DE&I. Whether it be through supporting a Black travel professional/organization, or highlighting the actions your company has taken towards workplace diversity.

Tell us how you plan to celebrate the first National Black Travel Day with us. If you’re supporting a Black-owned travel business, making travel plans, or already in another country, we want to hear from you in the comments below!
