"The campaign also represents a moment of rebirth for REVOLT..." Check out what our CEO Detavio Samuels had to say about our Imagine If campaign in this new article by Ad Age. "'What we're hoping to see through all of this is to you spark conversation to help Black people recondition their mind -- what happens when you get to see yourself in positions of power, instead of always being at the bottom of the food chain,' said Samuels."

Black History? Check. Black Future? Let’s go!! Time to chart a future that carries the power of our storytelling and the vividness of our authenticity.
CEO at REVOLT. Building the world’s most powerful Black storytelling engine on the planet. Powered by creators.
Some people will use Black History month to take a look back in history. Others will use it to point to future history makers. At REVOLT, we’re not just looking back; we are harnessing the raw power of AI to craft bold new worlds where Black individuals reign supreme and steer their own epic tales. Why does media only tell the same worn-out narratives that confine Black identity to chains, street corners, and despair? #ImagineIf we flipped the script, painting vivid portraits of Black excellence, unbounded potential, and indomitable spirit. What if we told stories that didn’t just echo history but electrified the future, showing Black people as the architects of their own destiny? Salute to the incredible AI creators who developed stunning visuals and stories for this social campaign. Thank you Ad Age for the coverage 🙏🏾 https://lnkd.in/eYqdmMsv View the Imagine If campaign: https://lnkd.in/e_dtCepy

Over the past week, “The Color Purple” was once again overlooked. While the Oscars and films are typically associated with entertainment, they reflect broader issues of bias and disinvestment present in both the business world and our society. This normalization of bias presents an opportunity to identify patterns and to develop more inclusive, sustainable solutions. Click the link below to explore my thoughts on additional strategies Black/underrepresented communities/professionals, creators and entrepreneurs can adopt to break these cycles. https://lnkd.in/gnF8gCPF

Founder at BlackOakTV | Content, Growth, Entrepreneurship | Helping Create More Content for the Culture.
✨ Black creators are redefining the game. Just like the historic moment when Black women swept the gymnastics podium (you can take the medal but you can't take the image and moment!), the creator economy is putting Black talent in the spotlight where it belongs. From Tyler Perry’s email-driven empire to Issa Rae’s YouTube beginnings, the creator economy has LONG BEEN a launchpad for Black artists, athletes, and entertainers to overcome the historically systemic barriers facing them in #Hollywood and elsewhere! And now, we’re taking this conversation to SXSW with our panel: “Visibility & Wealth: The Black Creator's Playbook.” 🔥 What You’ll Learn: - How to break through algorithmic barriers that limit our reach. - Tactics to transform followers into an engaged, thriving community. - Advanced monetization strategies that empower, not exploit. 🗣️ Meet the Panelists: - Alaina Fingal - Financial guru teaching money principles. - LaShonda Brown - The tech educator simplifying digital tools for all. - Damien Ritter - The mastermind supporting mega creator #BiggJah. - Uzo Ometu - Your moderator and Founder of BlackOakTV. 💡 Why This Matters: As Black creators continue to ascend, the stakes have never been higher. This panel is more than just a discussion—it’s a guide to ensuring our stories, our art, and our influence are amplified and valued. 🗳️ Your Vote Can Make a Difference: Help us bring this critical conversation to SXSW. Vote for our panel and let’s elevate Black creativity to new heights. Vote here: https://lnkd.in/eyqgQ3M3

On this first day of #BlackHistoryMonth I wanted to re-share my “Black Agenda”. We must acknowledge how these issues do not live in a silo & therefore must be addressed comprehensively. Details at JainForCongress.com #DemandBetter

Hip-hop BEEFs might be a profitable marketing strategy for record labels, but they serve as poor public relations for the unity of Black communities in America. It is troubling that such conflicts remain popular in today's hip-hop culture, particularly when Black artists support these divisive tactics, overlooking their broader consequences. Beyond merely increasing album sales, this approach promotes division and strife, which can ultimately lead to violence—a lasting impact on the fans who follow these artists. I can still see the echoes of slavery in this entire scenario. And before you say, 'Hip-hop is a competitive sport' or 'It’s for the culture,' we must ask: Who truly benefits? Perhaps there is someone with a better understanding than me. However, from my perspective, Black people mustn't engage in public conflicts, especially not in front of other racial groups.

Disenfranchised voters lead to issues and interests being underrepresented in our government. Historically, this has been the reality for Black voters. But PushBlack is transforming how we organize, mobilize, and boost voter turnout. Through the power of storytelling, PushBlack educates and empowers their community, encouraging them to invest in their own power and create lasting political and economic change. Check out this enlightening conversation with Julian W. and Yordanos Eyoel as they delve into the importance of listening, evaluating, and creating lasting community-based solutions. 🎧: https://lnkd.in/eNVwb5NW

It’s Black History Month! While we at BSI support this month of “celebration" - we remind the industry to forge ahead with equitable actions at all times, across the year. Black Owned Media is a moral imperative with critical business impact. In this NPR interview, we learn about the important role that black owned media serves in HUMANIZING, instead DEMONIZING the black experiences in America. If not for Black press through the generations, there would be no accountability for the adverse actions against the black community at large. Owning the narrative is owning the future. https://lnkd.in/gWRu7Uga
