"With everything that is going on in the world today, there is a push for more and more companies to work with black bloggers and black influencers and to provide equal pay. Today we are not going to go too deep into this. This is about providing companies with black bloggers that have smaller and more engaged audiences, but it’s also about supplying readers with a list of black bloggers that they can follow and support, and why they should support a smaller blogger."
