Black Lives Matter

The world is hurting. The Black community is fighting for their lives. Radical change and repair are necessary. This starts with each one of us doing the inner work to become aware of how racism lives within us and how it is perpetuated through us.

At Calm, we're looking in the mirror and asking ourselves how we can interrupt systemic racism and show up in solidarity with the Black community. To begin, we are donating to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. We’re listening. We’re learning. We can and will do better.
