‘Work should stand for itself,’ Black History Month laureate says on value of volunteering

During Black History Month, laureate Robyn Maynard emphasizes the importance of volunteering and community work to foster change and support marginalized groups. She advocates for recognition of the value of unpaid labor, particularly from those in underrepresented communities, arguing that work should be appreciated for its impact rather than solely its economic value. Maynard encourages everyone to contribute to their communities as a means of building understanding and solidarity.
