Black and Latinx Twitter

In my previous post, I had talked about Black Twitter. I appreciate Black Twitter, because of the impact the community had made. I love the fact that the Black community are able to discuss anything about their culture on Black Twitter. You don't even have to be African-American to be a part of Black Twitter. It does not matter what color skin you have, if you want to learn about the culture then you can be a part of Black Twitter.

Black Twitter inspired other ethnicities to create a space for their culture on social media. I would like to be a part of Latinx Twitter, so I can get to know my own background. Being a part of the everyday dialogue or talks in the Latinx Twitter will help me feel more connected to my family. Just like the quote I had posted previously...

Kimberle Crenshaw explains what Intersectionality is and why it is important. I attached TED talk video of Kimberle Crenshaw, explaining the importance of Intersectionality.

I love this demonstration! A perfect guide to understanding Intersectionality.

Black Twitter: "The language, references and other information journalists refer to as background are bandied about in everyday conversation among Black Twitter’s folks. Engaging in the everyday dialogue will keep journalists from making “you’re not from around here” mistakes like the #coatswitching debacle of 2016. "

Black Twitter is a created space for the black community to come together and freely discuss their issues, share ideas, etc.
