Co - Founder and Active Contributor for The Black Family Forum
Creation: following the events around the death of George Floyd and heightened tensions during the Pandemic, it felt extremely important for myself, my family and friends to create a safe space via a digital community to stay connected, share our feelings and discussion around the current climate. The Black Family Forum was born.
Mission: changing the narrative of black representation and visibility across all platforms. A family movement and collective of 3 generations - bringing discussion, reviews and feedback for all things black. For us by us. Elevating, inspiring and creating positive change for the next generation.
