Over the last 3 weeks, we’ve taken this time to educate ourselves, and learn about Black business owners, creatives, influencers, and the like, to better further our knowledge as a Marketing Agency, and through this, we’ve composed a list of 100 Black Creators You Should Be Following. Whether it’s the stories that you’ve heard personally or the ones that have taken over the headlines, the precedence on social media, or even the news stories — these experiences within the Black community have weighed heavily on us.
We recognize that one of the best ways to support the Black community right now is to use our platform as a catalyst to elevate Black voices and give room, especially on a platform like Instagram. Black-owned businesses, artists, bloggers, and influencers have been trailblazing the promotion of diversity, racial injustice, and body-positivity and now, more than ever, their feeds need to be spotlighted.
These 100+ creators are just the tip of the iceberg, there are countless more taking over our feeds and we acknowledge them all! Follow them, like and engage with their content, collaborate with them, share their work, hire them for upcoming campaigns, and continue to support them.
