Chaos & Culture Episode 16: "Black Cool" Is a Hot Commodity and Then What? The All the Fly Kids Show
-
- Society & Culture
If you've paid attention to pop culture and its most prominent Black voices over the past decade, then you've probably heard this statement or similar - "We are the culture!" Translation: Black people's creativity in entertainment and style, along with our embrace of certain products and services, add a validating cool factor otherwise unattainable.
But if a massive co-sign from Black people is our greatest leverage at the bargaining table, what does this mean in the grand scheme of big business? Additionally, how does leveraging "Black Cool" contribute to the longevity of our historical narrative? Translation, in the words of Sonia Sanchez: How do it free us?
We'll also talk about the day Facebook disconnected itself from the Internet, a few easy ways non-techie people can protect themselves online, and having product diversity and redundancy for anyone using social media to conduct and promote their business. We want y'all to win out here.
Chaos & Culture: Musings From the Minds of Geronimo Knows and "BeMo" Brown is a show with candid conversations and objective opinions about culture, lifestyle, and spirituality.
