The Art of Social Media

One of my favorite pastimes is to sit on social media and scroll, but not randomly. I scroll with intention because, for the first time in human history, we can see such diverse creative expression, sometimes in real-time Not only do I scroll to find artists, primarily of African Descent, on social media platforms like Instagram, but I also learn a great deal.

And yes, just like the next person, social media occupies wasteful time as I scroll from reel to picture to reel and find snippets of motivational speeches that resonate with my lived experience, or I receive a fun message from a friend that leads me down the black hole of scrolling. Still, there is so much good online also. So many people are sharing incredibly informative content that is broadening minds and connecting us on a level that is monumental to the human experience.

So, for this issue, I will share some of my favorite social media finds and the people inspiring me right now We have the joyful responsibility of living out our human experience to the max Here you will find some of the people and organizations helping me live out my ultimate human experience. To each person that I share, thank you for the inspiration!
