snoop1130 Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Exploring Black culture’s seismic influence on mainstream trends Courtesy of Blacktag From bantu knots and baby hairs, to disco and techno, the dab, the whoa, and every major TikTok dance trend you can bring to mind, Black people drive contemporary culture. But very rarely do we see Black creatives receive proper recognition – or compensation – for their work. Featuring the likes of Jalaiah Harmon, Sage Elsesser, Parker Kit Hill, Gabrielle Richardson, Eloisa Santos, and Miski, Black Art is Black Money is a short film exploring some of the many examples around the world where Black culture has been the catalyst for global trends.
