"The perfect storm of a pandemic and national discussions of racism put a spin on what an internship at a conservation organization looked like. I wasn’t able to go to downtown Minneapolis and attend in-person huddles, but the weekly catchups on Zoom allowed me to have insight into the incredible work of this organization: Communications Team sending out legislators’ voting records, the Policy Team keeping up with the governor’s special sessions, and the Field Team reaching out to partners in innovative ways. Working with the Justice, Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion (JEDI) committee was the most meaningful to me. The committee was formed last year, before I had started working at Conservation Minnesota and before the murder of George Floyd. It is focused on bringing more equitable and social justice practices to the internal and external policies of Conservation Minnesota."
