Abstract
The year 2020 was challenging across all spheres of functioning for everyone. This challenge was no different for the editorial staff of the Journal of Black Psychology (JBP). While we had the luxury of staying at home during the pandemic, the demands increased—working at home while balancing family and partners also at home, managing the increasing demands at work as a result of navigating online platforms for teaching, advising, and conducting research as well as practicing psychology for our clients and communities. The time afforded more scholars to write and submit manuscripts to JBP. We thank you for the increased submissions. However, the increased scholarship also increased the demand on our editorial board, which has resulted in manuscripts under review longer than we would like or expect. We have appreciated your patience as we adjust to shorten the review time. To shorten the review time, we have increased our editorial consultants. Take a look at our list of editorial consultants on the inside page of the journal cover. Prior years our board has consisted of approximately 20 to 25; now we have 50 consultants and counting. Thank you for agreeing to serve on JBP. We are proud to have such esteemed scholars and practitioners from around the world serving. Our goal is to increase expertise as well as to decrease the burden on reviewing as many manuscripts as previously. We would like to extend the call for more editorial consultants. If you have expertise on the psychological experiences of Blacks across the African diaspora, contact me, providing me with a current CV and your interest. I will be happy to engage with you about serving as a consultant for JBP.
