Creating Creates CommunityWhat I may say now might contradict what I just said in last week's blog post, "Who am I creating for?". My mission behind creating art, content, and entertainment is to use the intersectionality of politics/social justice and media as a platform to create change. |

|
Who am I creating for?The answer to this question is a simple one. I am creating for myself. All of the projects I am and have been working on I started because it brought fulfillment into my life. After a while, I sometimes begin to lose sight as to why I originally started all of these fun creative projects. |
