On this weeks episode, we are joined by Danielle Young as we dive into the messy magic of 2000s media and how it shaped a generation’s relationship to storytelling, visibility, and critique. We talk “2000s starter pack,” revisit TV, music, tabloids, Myspace, and early YouTube while unpacking what that era taught them about being seen online as Black storytellers. We also reflect on how 2000s media still lives in our work today, what we refuses to replicate, and the “big Beyoncé note” she’d send to an industry that remains nostalgic for harmful narratives.
