META - The Superordinary

In an effort to highlight Black stories, and in collaboration with Facebook, we dug up some of the stories shared on these groups and turned their protagonists into comic-style digital shorts, that fictionalize their everyday heroism. We interviewed and selected each of our heroes in collaboration with Black Illustrators, who brought their stories to life.

Ep. 1: Dropping the Armor

iPodKingCarter and AturaGaming set the tone for the series by sharing their experiences opening up as Black men.

Ep. 2: Pride Royale

TheFierceDiva and AntBellJr talk LGBTQIA+ representation in gaming, online allyship and how to how foster more inclusive communities on streaming platforms.

Ep.3: Shades of Black

CoachClayTV and NVAD3, who have radically different backgrounds, talk Blackness viewed through the lens of family heritage and upbringing.
