YouTube #ProudToCreate
For my fellow queer folks, creativity isn't a coincidence, it's survival. We have had to create our own way forward - it was not paved for us. This year I was lucky enough to celebrate the creativity of my community for YouTube during Pride Month. The program launched with a film but included a massive #ProudtoCreate programmed shelf that promoted dance, skate, art, makeup, etc films from queer creators on YouTube boosting their visibility, views and payment. And we were finally able to create measures to decrease hate on the platform. Haters beware.
