I started my own Black TV & Film PRINT magazine because I want generations after us to know who we are, and what we created beyond the digital timeline.

After working as a social media manager for the past few years I became extremely digitally fatigued but I couldn’t force myself to log out. The next casting, next connection, next opportunity most likely rested in me scrolling my thumb on social media. That left me wondering — what will they know of us if the apps shut down tomorrow? We need something that can be held, a physical record of our brilliance.

I’m no journalist, but I do have a keen interest in conversations filmmakers/creatives are having and the ones we’re not. In this first issue we explore finances, culture, family, tech and more. I’m super excited to share it with y’all.

WHAT LIVES IN PRINT, LIVES LONGER.
