Hey Friend,
Getting famous from social media? Going viral? Sponsored content? That’s so…Black.
We're proud to present the season finale of “That’s So Black” VOL 4: Influencers.
In this episode, we explain how social media influencers only exist because of Black culture. Watch on Twitter, Instagram, or YouTube.
From Zola’s Twitter thread to Keeping Up With The Kardashians, corporations have recognized Black social influence and profited from viral content.
As we close out Black History Month, remember that everything you know and love about Internet culture came from Black people.
In Solidarity,
Eteng Ettah
Narrative Director, MediaJustice
