About

The MSM Advisory Board

Melanin Stories Matter is focused on our Mission of elevating and amplifying BIPOC voices. Our Advisory Board is comprised of BIPOC members representing diverse communities, Indigenous nations, and areas of expertise. Our Board helps us ask and answer, "Who isn't in the room?" for each aspect of MSM.
