Liberation looks like this.
Black and Brown creators lead culture—but remain paid last and least. This Juneteenth, we’re creating space to name that truth, shift the narrative, and spotlight the brands investing in real change.

We’re gathering for an intimate dinner in Fort Worth, TX—hosted at a stunning private estate.
As the historic home of Juneteenth, Fort Worth sets the tone for a conversation rooted in freedom, legacy, and forward motion.
This is your opportunity to show up, speak out, and lead the charge in digital equity.
Why Juneteenth? Why Now?
DEI isn’t about optics—it’s about outcomes.
This isn’t another “inclusion” panel. It’s a room full of decision-makers ready to change the system from the inside out.
On a day that honors freedom, we’re expanding the definition of what that looks like in the digital economy.
Why It Matters
Meet the Team
Maybe you’re tired of watching talented creators get overlooked.
Maybe you believe that equity isn’t optional—it’s essential.
Or maybe, like us, you just know it’s time to do things differently.
Behind this movement are two women who’ve turned bold ideas into action—
building bridges, closing gaps, and championing representation at every level.
