for me, beauty is exactly the opposite of glamour. it has something to do with one’s habits, one’s clarity about things.

On this day in 1920, Henrietta Lacks was born.

Her cells were taken without her knowledge in 1951 (HeLa cells) and became one of the most important tools in medicine. They became vital for developing the polio vaccine, cloning, gene mapping, vitro fertilization & more

@lindseydayy on the importance of #BlackOwnedMedia "If we're not the ones documenting our stories; it will always be told through someone-else's bullshit lens and through lies."

The advertising industry spends over $300 billion each year with media publishers.

#BlackOwnedMedia companies compete for a fraction of 1% of that spend. 🧵

[CRWNMAG @CRWNMAG]

Not programs, promises or studies, just — money. Companies like @ProcterGamble and executives like Marc S. Pritchard have publicly acknowledged these racist practices in #advertising and have yet to move the needle for #blackownedmedia companies.

[CRWNMAG @CRWNMAG]

Advertisers like @ProcterGamble @GM @Loreal @PepsiCo @Amazon and agencies like @WPP @Omnicom @PublicisGroupe @InterpublicIPG could change these racist dynamics in #advertising today by making multi-year, 7-10-figure investments in media buys with #BlackOwnedMedia companies.
